What happens on placement?
Once on placement you will perform responsible work that will extend your knowledge and let you show future employers what you can achieve. You might choose to work in a large IT department with a project team, or in a small organisation alongside user staff. You are likely to perform a range of tasks. For example, programming, user support, systems investigation, analysis and design, documentation, testing, use of packages, data collection or help-desk work. Each placement is unique, but we try to ensure that you are provided with a planned sequence of learning opportunities and industrial training.
