T Level Placements and Your Workforce
Over the next few months, the Department for Education and Strategic Development Network (SDN) are hosting a number of practical online and in-person sessions to help you explore, plan and host T Level industry placements. Each session gives you a chance to hear from employers who are already hosting placments and the Government support available to help you.

Hosting a T Level student on an industry placement has many benefits but employers also have some responsibilities, just as they do when employing young people on apprenticeships or internships.
This one-hour webinar shows what these responsibilities are and how to meet them.
It also shows which areas T Level providers are responsible for and how employers can share their responsibilities with the provider.

Industry placements are a fantastic opportunity for students to learn valuable technical and professional skills that provide a launchpad to their early careers and benefit your organisation.
Every student starts their placement with a set of learning goals they want to achieve. Employers help the student to identify what these goals are. They also play an important role in helping the student to achieve these goals.
“We find out from students what they want to get out of the placement and the goals they have for their course, then we tailor their learning to the experiences they would like to get.”
Jenny Sinclair, Cambridge University Hospitals
So how do employers like you make it possible for students to achieve their goals? How do you align the student’s learning goals with the needs of your organisation?
In this one-hour webinar, we’ll use the experience of employers already helping students to achieve their goals to share the latest insights with you.

Young people who take part in industry placements during their T Level are given a brilliant start to their working lives. Employers who provide placements benefit in return by attracting bright, interested young people into their organisation – many stay on to become the workforce of the future. Large employers play an especially important part because they can provide placement opportunities for students in multiple roles, in diverse working environments, and in many different areas of the country.
So what are the issues facing large employers when they host students on placements and start to scale up the number of placement opportunities they provide? And what solutions can be shared from their experiences about building a sustainable placement programme?
