FAQ'S

Can I volunteer in an organisation to meet the required work placement hours for Animal Care?

Many of our Animal Care students, unless employed at a suitable workplace, complete their required hours in a voluntary position, such as volunteering at an animal or wildlife shelter or an animal-related business.

Prior to commencing your work placement, your prospective supervisor will need to submit a Work Placement Approval Kit. Once received, our Student Liaison Officer will assess the organisation to ensure it meets the workplace criteria for your course, including access to tasks, systems and processes, equipment and even species of animals.
