during these courses equip graduates to meet this demand. The benefits of the Work Integrated Learning program include increased employability, better preparation for the complexities of the business world compared with other graduates, and a deeper understanding of real issues in a workplace environment.
The Work Integrated Learning subjects are assessable and require two semesters of work in the tourism, hospitality or culinary industries.

Students will be responsible for their own transportation, accommodation and other costs associated with the placement program. Students taking up approved international placements will need to ensure that they hold a valid passport, with unrestrictive access to other countries and at least 12 months validity.
Students are encouraged to find their own placement opportunities. Assistance will be available, if required, through Angliss Careers and Employment and the Work Integrated Learning Coordinator.
The Institute’s Work Integrated Learning Coordinator will maintain contact with the students during this year to assist with any issues that may arise.
