What training and support can I expect?

Initial training and weekly video calls are part of the experience.

Placement Year International will discuss your work preferences and answer all your questions in a video call before you join.

We will then match you with a suitable host company in Sydney and arrange a video call with your work supervisor at the company so you can ask any questions you have about the business, your role, what training you’ll receive and so on.

Your host company will nominate a member of staff to be your work supervisor. They will give you initial training at the start of your internship and have regular video calls with you to give feedback on your work, answer your questions and discuss your tasks and progress.

At the end you will receive a certificate and references.
