Work Experience

We are committed to supporting our local community by offering the opportunity to undertake work experience across a broad range of employment and professional areas. Areas of work experience may include:

  • Communications
  • Community and Cultural Development
  • Engineering
  • Events
  • Finance
  • General Administration
  • Human Resources
  • Information Technology
  • Library Services
  • Planning
  • Project Delivery
  • Sustainability and Waste

We accept students who are required to undertake work placements in association with study and/or qualifications.

To be eligible for placement you must:

  • Be currently studying (High School, TAFE, University or College);
  • Apply for a placement that is relevant to your current study requirements; and
  • Have current insurance coverage (Certificate of Currency) covering the duration of your placement.

While we try to place as many students as possible, due to high demand we are unable to guarantee that all requests for placements will be met.
