Certificate Code:
HLT33021
RTO:
3044:The Gordon
Structured Workplace Learning (SWL)
VCAA Requirements:
The VCAA has determined that Structured Workplace Learning (SWL) is an appropriate and valuable component of all VCE VET programs. The VCAA mandates SWL under the following situations:
• where a period of work placement is mandated for the award of the qualification
• where the assessment conditions from a UoC contain a statement regarding the requirement to demonstrate skills in a workplace.
The National Training Package rules require completion of 120 hours of clinical placement (HLT33021). The units selected in The Gordon’s VETDSS Health Program do not contain mandated work or clinical placement requirements.
Therefore, placement is not mandatory. Undertaking Structured Workplace Learning is strongly recommended as it is for all VCE VET programs.
