Practical Placement
The course includes 35 hours of mandatory practical placement in Industry, which All Health Training organise on our students behalf, which must be completed in one block, being Monday to Friday with a start time of 8am – 9am and a finish time of 3.30pm – 5pm. This will be completed at the end of the course as students must have done at least 20 “successful” live bleeds before placement can be commenced. Placement may take between 1 – 3 months to coordinate with industry.
Collection centre locations and the start and finish times are determined by the partnership organisation and are non-negotiable. Students cannot request an alternative location.
