Work Experience Resource Toolkits for Health and Care Organisations

Work Experience Toolkits

To help employers, teachers and career advisors organise the high quality work experience placements, we have refreshed and revived four of our existing toolkits focusing on key areas of healthcare and created a further toolkit on online work related learning.

These toolkits include forms and templates which health and care organisations can use when putting in place a work experience programme, they can also be easily edited.  We would encourage organisations to adapt them for use in their own context.

Supplementary information is also available which provides more detailed advice and guidance – as well as links to the latest work experience resources and up-to-date opportunities.
