Work integrated learning (WIL) integrates the theory of learning with the practice of work. We also refer to it as placement, professional experience, clinical education or internships.
At ACU more than 30,000 tailored WIL opportunities take place each year. By taking part in WIL you will learn alongside experienced practitioners and workplace educators. They’ll share their knowledge and expertise and act as mentors so you can build on your knowledge and skills in a real-world environment.
Throughout your studies you will examine fundamental questions about human experience and meaning and learn to address them with intelligence, compassion, and a heightened ethical awareness. WIL gives you the opportunity to live these values.
Our reputation and strong community and industry links provide you with invaluable practical learning experiences ensuring you graduate work ready.
ACU offers industry ways to connect with our students. Many courses require students to complete professional placements while some have specific requirements to ensure students meet professional registration obligations. Other courses offer students flexibility to tailor their placements to suit their learning needs.
