Work integrated learning

RMIT University is committed to providing you with an education that strongly links formal learning with professional or vocational practice.  As a student enrolled in this RMIT University program, you will:

  • Undertake and be assessed on structured activities that allow you to learn, apply and demonstrate your professional or vocational practice. 
  • Interact with industry and community when undertaking these activities. 
  • Complete these activities in real work contexts or situations. 

In addition, these interactions and work contexts provide distinctive sources of feedback to you to assist your learning.  Any or all of these aspects of a WIL experience may be simulated.

In this program, you will be doing a specific course(s) that focus on work-integrated learning (WIL). You will be assessed on professional or vocational work in a workplace setting (real or simulated) and receive feedback from those involved in your industry.
