Can you offer a student a placement?
Work Experience Placements
At Reaseheath we are always on the look out for employers who would be willing to offer a work placement for our college students.
Could you provide work experience to a student aged 16 and over?
At Reaseheath we believe it is vitally important that students receive industry focused experiences to ensure that they are career ready when they leave college.
If you own or manage a business and would like to help prepare the workforce of the future by offering a work placement to students at Reaseheath College, please get in touch today!
Our extended work placement programme aims to give students the chance to work with employees for longer periods, to ensure that they gain essential skills needed to excel in their chosen industry. This means that students learn what it’s really like to work within their chosen sector.
Many forward-thinking employers choose to offer a work placement to Reaseheath students to benefit from the free support they receive from young, hard-working students who have new, innovative ideas you could use in your business.
We offer courses in a variety of subject areas and we’re looking for businesses to partner with in related industries who would like to provide work placements. All we ask is that employers have employer liability insurance and that you can provide feedback to students on how they’re working.
