Industry Placements

Industry placements allow
students to develop their skills

What are industry placements?

Industry placements are embedded in our courses so students can apply their newly learnt skills in the real working environment. 

We have a dedicated Industry Placement team who work with local employers and organisations from all sectors so the College is able to offer you high quality placement choices.

Industry placements help you to improve your technical skills and allow you to become experienced in what you are learning in college in a workplace setting.

As part of your industry placement you will be required to take part in reviews with your Industry Placement Officer, this will help highlight all the new skills you have, as well as, helping you set further goals to achieve.

Who are the Industry Placement Team?

The Industry Placement team are here to help you find the best possible placement. We provide advice and guidance on the different employers we work with, we also have a dedicated vacancy website to show you the latest placements we have on offer.

We can help you:

  • Find a placement or support you in finding your own placement
  • Ensure that the jobs you will be doing on placement relate well to your course
  • Help you to create a CV
  • Help with interview tips and mock interviews

Our team has an open door policy so you can always drop into our office whenever you have a question.
