About this Unit
This unit provides students with the opportunity to apply the skills and knowledge they are
developing during their studies to tasks within a workplace (the host organisation). The unit may
involve substantial contact with the public through workplace placements and, for this reason, it is
equivalent to a professional placement. The unit is recommended for students in their third year of
study (or part time equivalent).
