VCOSS recently completed the first phase of the Quality Placements Project, which aims to help overcome challenges in the supply and quality of student placements in the Victorian community services sector. Several organisations called for a practice guide to assist community service organisations and supervisors to plan and host successful student placements. As a result, VCOSS is now developing best practice student placement guidelines for the Victorian community sector.

You are invited to help shape the resource by participating in a focus group discussion and sharing your views on what it should cover. The focus groups will be held online and run for 2 hours.

If you have any questions about the project, please contact Charlotte Newbold, Policy Advisor, at charlotte.newbold@vcoss.org.au

Please note: There is an alternative session being held on Tuesday 30 July, 10am – 12pm (you do not need to register for both)
