Work Placements
The demand from employers for experienced workers is rising. This means that work experience for students is more important than ever before. Amongst other benefits, a work experience placement can offer the following opportunities:
For you:
• To put learning into practice
• To consider career options
• Build on your strengths
• To get practical experience and start to develop ‘employability’ skills
For potential employers:
• To assess student capabilities
• The placement can act as an extended interview, thereby reducing recruitment costs
• A fresh pair of eyes to help solve problems
• An extra pair of hands to develop ideas
At The Fashion Retail Academy, work experience is an integral part of all our courses. You will be appointed to your work placement provider after discussion with your Group Tutor. Thanks to our close relationship with industry we are able to offer a great variety of placement across a number of brands and departments.
