During Placement 1A, students will undertake a placement in a relevant clinical setting over the course of Semester One (as  negotiated with an appropriate Placement Agency) during which they will develop their contact with clients, which may comprise  individual clients, couples, families and group work, under the guidance of and directed by the Placement Agency. Precise  arrangements will be negotiated on a student-by-student basis dependent on placement requirements, and documented in a  Learning Agreement. Placement 1A will normally require on-site presence of 2-3 days per week.

Placement activities will continue during the mid-semester break unless negotiated otherwise with the Placement Agency. On-site  placement activities may be undertaken over an extended semester (e.g. from week 5 for Semester 1, or week 26 for Semester 2)  where this better suits the requirements of specific placement sites and/or students.

Throughout and as part of Placement 1A, students will receive a minimum of 5 hours of clinical supervision with an on-site  supervisor who will provide feedback and guidance with regard to the student’s Placement activities. Associated tasks undertaken as part of the Placement include induction, research needed for client work, documentation of counselling activities required, liaison with relevant other staff on-site and off-site as needed, and other workplace activities negotiated within their Learning Agreement. Students will also complete and submit a daily log of activities, and an evaluation of their placement venue at the end of the Placement.

In addition, students are required to attend Placement Orientation, plus fortnightly group supervision sessions with other Master of Counselling & Psychotherapy students. The group supervision sessions are conducted by clinical supervisors at The 成人大片. During these sessions, students will have the opportunity to present and discuss clinical cases, and enhance skills
development and consolidate their  knowledge through experiential and problem-based learning. Materials covered can include the
following: initiating, developing and sustaining professional, positive, and productive relationships with clients; application of assessment and intervention techniques; monitoring client progress; discussion of new skills and their application; review andreflection of on-line materials (e.g. recorded clinical sessions); presentation of new skills; identification and discussion of problems and challenges with clients and ways to overcome these; discussion and presentation of clinical cases, and benefits of peer review and supervision. Participation in group supervision is part of overall assessment for Placement 1A. Satisfactory participation in and contribution to group supervision is required in order to pass the course.

Up to 3 days per week, 2 X four hours, 2 x two hours, plus 2 hrs group supervision per fortnight.

Extensions
All extensions for assignments must be requested, at the latest, by the last working day before the due date of submission.  Extensions will generally be granted only on medical or genuine compassionate grounds. Supporting documentation must be 
provided at the time a student requests an extension. Without documentation, extensions will not be granted. Late requests for
extension will neither be accepted nor acknowledged.

Only the Course Co-ordinator(s) may grant extensions.

Supporting documentation will be required when requesting an extension. Examples of documents that are acceptable include: a medical certificate that specifies dates of incapacity, a police report (in the case of lost computers, car & household theft etc.), a  letter from a Student Counsellor, Education and Welfare Officer (EWO) or Disability Liaison Officer that provides an assessment of  compassionate circumstances, or a letter from an independent external counsellor or appropriate professional able to verify the student’s situation. The length of any extension granted will take into account the period and severity of any incapacity or impact  on the student. Extensions of more than 10 days will not be granted except in exceptional circumstances.

Late submission
Marks will be deducted when assignments for which no extension has been granted are handed in late. All assignments, including those handed in late, will be assessed on their merits. In the case of late assignments where no extension has been granted, 5 percentage points of the total marks possible per day will bededucted. If an assignment that is 2 days late is awarded 65% on its
merits, the mark will then be reduced by 10% (5% per day for 2 days) to 55%. If that same  assignment is 4 days late, the mark will be reduced by 20% (5% per day for 4 days) to 45%, and so on.

The School of Public Health reserves the right to refuse to accept an assignment that is more than 7 days late.

Assignments submitted after the due date may not be graded in time to be returned on the listed return dates. Students
submitting examinable written work who request (and receive) an extension that takes them beyond the examination period are advised that there is no guarantee that their grades will be processed in time to meet usual University deadlines.  

Resubmission
If a student is dissatisfied with an assessment grade they should follow the Student Grievance Resolution Process 
</student/grievance/process/>. Students who are not satisfied with a particular assessment result
should raise their concerns with Course Co-ordinator(s) in the first instance. This must be done within 10 business days of the date of notification of the result. Resubmission of any assignment is subject to the agreement of the Course Co-ordinator(s) and  will only be permitted for the most compelling of reasons.
