During 2021, remote placements are able to be undertaken where ever a student is living. In addition, students may be residing in locations where onsite placements are able to be undertaken.
Therefore, the WIL team has revised the program to enable ongoing support and assistance online for students undertaking WIL while living outside of Melbourne. We encourage students to source placements in overseas, interstate and regional locations where they are currently living.
If you are living overseas:
- We encourage you to source a placement in your home country and use it as the work component for a WIL unit. You will need to complete the paperwork below – under Offshore Placements and apply for an offshore WIL unit.
- Please note: If you are living outside of Australia, you are not able to undertake your placement in a country other than your home country, ie the placement must be in the same country as your passport.
- Your placement can be either onsite or remote, depending on the restrictions in the country of your placement. You will need to ensure all of the information is provided in the placement pack.
- Please contact the WIL team at wil.international@monash.edu if you would like more information on participating in an offshore placement.
If you are living in Australia, outside of Melbourne:
- We encourage you to source a placement in a location outside of Melbourne, and use it as the work component for a WIL unit. You will need to complete the paperwork below under Placements in Australia.
- Your placement may be undertaken remotely or onsite, depending on the restrictions in the state you are living. You will need to ensure all of the required information is provided in the placement pack to support your placement location.
