Our expectations of placement hosts  

As a placement host, your organisation is responsible for providing each student with:  

• A meaningful and appropriate learning experience so as to achieve the objectives of the program  

• A placement supervisor and professional role models  

• Regular feedback sessions with the student, including written feedback addressing relevant criteria  

• Regular supervision as relevant to occupational health and safety risks; and professional development opportunities. 

How can industry support? 

Students are responsible for sourcing their own placements and will approach organisations directly. You can simply be open to student enquiries, or if you would like to make your opportunities more visible contact the ADP school to discuss advertising your placement role so students can find and apply.
