Work Placement Allocations:

Student placement will be organised on behalf of the Student by InterCare Training. The Student will be allocated placement within 1-hour radius of the course location (public transport is not taken into consideration within this timing). Student placement is non negotiable and must be completed within a 3 week period Monday to Friday. No weekend work is required.

First Aid

The student must hold a current valid Level II in First Aid to commence their work placement.

Issuing of Certificates

We will issue certificates within 30 days once a student has handed in all units/modules, completed their 3 week work placement, completed the Level II First Aid and marked competent.

Police Check

A clear and current police check is required from every student to complete the work placement component of their course. All students completing a qualification must have a clear and current police check by week 7 of their course to receive their work placement allocation. Failure to do so may result in your placement being cancelled or postponed.

This can be organised via the InterCare/NCC Police check Service.
