Industry Placements

The College offers industry placements to help businesses access emerging talent and provide students with practical experience.

These placements are integral to T Level qualifications, which combine classroom learning with substantial industry experience. Industry Placements require the employer to provide 45-60 day placement (equivalent to a minimum of 315 hours) as part of the student’s college course.

By hosting a student, employers can gain new insights while helping to shape the next generation of professionals. Businesses benefit from fresh ideas, improved recruitment pipelines, and the opportunity to develop young talent with industry-specific skills. This can also enhance workforce productivity and provide a chance to mentor future employees.
