This course is based on the principles of experiential learning and requires students to be placed with a business and participate in completing set internship tasks and online coaching and mentoring sessions. While every effort will be made to seek individual internships, there may be some internships that take place as part of a small group assigned to a virtual internship host.

Students will spend a minimum of 20 days on the internship.

The University expects full-time students (i.e. those taking 12 units per semester) to devote a total of 48 hours per week to their studies. This means that you are expected to commit approximately 12 hours per week for a three-unit course (156 hours per course).

Although for this course some time will be spent in the virtual workplace environment, there is still an expectation for students to complete individual study and meet with the academic supervisor outside of this.

Once your application is approved, you will be committed to virtual internship.

Internships will commence after census date, however you can expect to work with the Internships Team and Outcome.Life for up to 6 weeks prior to census date.

You can expect:

• initial consultation meetings with students and Ouctome.Life. This will occur via Zoom and will be one-on-one with an Outcome.Life consultant.
• students will be invited to book another consultations for a private one-on-one resume & LinkedIn checking and advice
• students will start to receive training plans for open internship opportunities
• students will start being booked in for interviews with host companies
• students will be offered internships and the compliance documents will be executed.

Students can meet with the academic supervisor to discuss assessment requirements and tasks.

The academic staff member will be available throughout the duration of the placement to advise or assist you with any content-related issues you face in the workplace.
