    This course is based on the principles of experiential learning and requires students to be placed with a business and participate in completing set internship tasks and online coaching and mentoring sessions. While every effort will be made to seek individual internships, there may be some internships that take place as part of a small group assigned to a virtual internship host.
    Workload

    The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

    Students will spend a minimum of 20 days on the internship.

    The 最新糖心Vlog expects full-time students (i.e. those taking 12 units per semester) to devote a total of 48 hours per week to their studies. This means that you are expected to commit approximately 12 hours per week for a three-unit course (156 hours per course).

    Although for this course some time will be spent in the virtual workplace environment, there is still an expectation for students to complete individual study and meet with the academic supervisor outside of this.

    Once your application is approved, you will be committed to virtual internship.

    Internships will commence after census date, however you can expect to work with the Internships Team and Outcome.Life for up to 6 weeks prior to census date.

    You can expect:
    • initial consultation meetings with students and Ouctome.Life. This will occur via Zoom and will be one-on-one with an Outcome.Life consultant.
    • students will be invited to book another consultations for a private one-on-one resume & LinkedIn checking and advice
    • students will start to receive training plans for open internship opportunities
    • students will start being booked in for interviews with host companies
    • students will be offered internships and the compliance documents will be executed.
    Learning Activities Summary

    As well as regularly attending the workplace, students can meet with the course coordinator to discuss assessment requirements and tasks.

    The course coordinator will be available throughout the duration of the work placement to advise or assist you with any content-related issues you face on the internship.

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
