Career Ready Placement (Work Experience, Internship etc)
Career-ready Placements (Work Experience, Internships etc)
The University of Newcastle has a general insurance program that extends to cover the range of people, activities and equipment involved in the delivery of teaching and research. While there is no single insurance policy that can offer cover to Students who participate in the range of placement activities with Host /Professional Experience Providers (Employers), Students should be aware of the role that insurance can – and can’t – play in the event of an incident while they are under the control and supervision of their Provider.
For more information please refer:
