Work integrated learning (WIL) integrates the theory of learning with the practice of work. It is often referred to as placement, professional experience, clinical education or internships.
At ACU more than 30,000 tailored WIL opportunities occur each year. Students learn alongside experienced practitioners, building knowledge and skills. Workplace educators share their knowledge and expertise and mentor the professionals of the future.
