Placement approaches – developing the right model for your organisation
A T Level industry placement is an extended period of structured time that a student spends in the workplace, developing technical and soft skills relevant to the sector. They can vary in length but must last for a minimum of 45 days, allowing students to make a meaningful contribution to your organisation.
In this webinar, you’ll discover the latest government-approved models you can use to host all, or part, of a placement, and how you can work with T Level providers and other employers to find an approach that works best for your organisation.
During the session we’ll take you through:
- The benefits of hosting industry placements for your organisation and for students
- The models you can use to host placements – including remote, taster sessions and split placements
- Practical examples of how employers are drawing on different models
- Case study input from an employer who has hosted placements
- How to work with T Level providers and other employers to agree a placement model
- The government support, tools and resources available to help you

Designed for HR Managers, Learning and Development Managers, and others interested in hosting placements.
