  Work placement arrangements

  • Students can choose their work placement locations. However, it will be verified by the Trainer/Assessors to ensure it has all the facilities and equipment’s that meets the requirements of SITHIND008 Work effectively in the hospitality service.
  • Students would be supervised/assessed while on placement by the ABM Trainer/Assessors.
  • ABM would organise work-placement locations if students are unable to manage by themselves.
  • Work-placement agreement needs to be filled by the relevant parties. ABM would provide the agreement to the students.
  • Trainers and Assessors would instruct the students on how to complete the logbook.
  • ABM may engage a third party to manage work-placement for the students which includes, visiting the work placement venues, organising work placement locations for the students and instruct students to fill the logbook as per requirement.

To maximise the chance of students successfully completing their training, ABM will identify any support individual students need prior to their enrolment and provide access to that support throughout their training. This will be done using both the Enrolment Form, and a Pre-Enrolment Form, that students are required to fill in.

The aim of both documents is to provide any support that may be required. This could include:

• Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) support
• Assistive Technology
• Additional Tutorials, and / or
• Other mechanisms, such as assistance in using technology for online delivery components.

Where this support attracts an additional cost to the student, ABM will make this clear prior to accepting the student’s enrolment. If there are limitations to the support ABM is able to provide, these limitations will be made clear in information provided to a potential student.

Where ABM identifies required support, such as literacy or numeracy, English or other language barriers or physical capabilities, and it cannot provide such support directly, it will refer the student to a third party. The costs of such third-party support will the responsibility of the individual.

Where ABM is not capable of offering an environment suitable for the needs of a student with specific identified needs, it will inform them accordingly and may direct the student to a provider that can, and thus will not process their enrolment.
