You should understand that most of these students will be adults. Some will be older teenagers).

Staff at these Colleges are aware that the following conditions are understood:

• Your organization reserves the right to reject applicants if they are not suitable or opportunities have been filled
• Details of any arrangements are totally between your organization and the student; and though the affiliate college may refer a student to you; they accept no responsibility for that student
• The quantity and nature of work and terms of employment are to be negotiated between yourself and the student; and that it is your responsibility to ensure those terms are legal.

What We Can Offer

1. Some courses require students to undertake 100 hours or more of industry experience in order to complete their qualification. These requirements can often only be attempted after the student has progressed a long way into their studies. We can refer students such as this to you.

2. Often people are studying a significant course, but have not had any relevant industry experience. Such people will often ask their tutors to advise on how to get experience.

3. Many students choose to study by distance education because they are traveling while studying. Such people will often welcome opportunities to stop and work for a while in different locations; both to get relevant industry experience, and to also meet the locals.

4. Often graduates from courses are seeking to make a new start in a career; and will seek advice from tutors. Any organization listed on this directory may be put in touch with that type of person; if that is what you are looking for.
