SWL Portal - Finding a work placement
Structured Workplace Learning is a key feature of VET programs. All students are encouraged to complete a
minimum of 40 hours work placement in a related industry, however, the number of hours will vary depending
on the course. This will enhance their learning and prospects of attaining an apprenticeship or entry into
further training.
Structured Workplace Learning may involve an employer accepting a student on a one-day-a-week basis or a
one-week block.
Structured Workplace Learning enables the student to demonstrate acquired skills and knowledge in an
industry setting. During the work placement, a student will undertake tasks to build on their skills and
knowledge.
The SWL online portal lists local and state-wide work placement opportunities. Students can search the portal
by region, industry or course to find an appropriate work placement.
For local Wimmera and Southern Mallee opportunities please visit

http://workplacements.education.vic.gov.au/llens/wsmllen/
Select ‘share with your teacher’ when you find an appropriate opportunity and your teacher can match you to
the position before you arrange to attend an interview.

 Information Technology
The Certificate III in IT program develops a broad set of fundamental skills as described under the Certificate II but offers
further breadth through units such as introductory-level programming techniques, IP ethics and privacy of information,
diagnostic testing and client service. The program is suitable for serious IT enthusiasts and affords meaningful insights into
some of the more common specialisations so that participants can either use this base knowledge and skills to pursue a
career or further study in specialist fields; software engineering, gaming, coding, programming, technical support, data
management, network management, information security and more.
