Community Engagement and Internationalisation
Management of Work-Integrated Learning
Work-Integrated Learning is managed through three areas:
- Work-Integrated Learning Unit
- Academic Staff
- Academic Administration.
The integrated model involves a multifaceted approach of coordination relative to serving students, employers and the University.
Community Health Nursing
It is done by centralising student placements and employer and marketing administration at the Work-Integrated Learning Unit and decentralising student's monitoring, visitations and assessment to academic departments.
