Hi
Do you have any notes on how to connect school students with work experience? I am sure schools would appreciate some information about that. Bev

Hi Bev,
Please feel free to get in touch with me directly (tfarrow@futurenow.org.au). Are you enquiring about Hospitality specifically?
The Forum facilitated by FACET addressed the Work Integrated Learning (WIL) Program for Hospitality and Tourism bachelor students at ECU, Curtin and Murdoch universities, although the WIL Program runs across all industry sectors. This Program would therefore not extend to school students, but the info I could share is that certain schools do have partnerships with hotels, which are arranged directly between the school and hotel. It is dependant on what the work experience is and where (location) it is to be undertaken.
Regards,
Tracey
