Placement Record • You have to register with the department once you have secured a placement. • If we do not have a record of your placement, you will fail the Industrial Training course. • We have to screen the job nature of all placement positions to make sure that the posts satisfy the Industrial Training requirements.

The average salary is useful for me to advise companies about the norm.    • Name and contact details of your supervisor (you may send these later after you have started work.) 

Placement Record • Status of your placement record is either NA / Waiting / Incomplete / Approved • NA – You haven't entered your placement record yet • Waiting – You have entered your placement record, but it hasn't been screened by us yet • Incomplete – We have screened your placement record and find that you did not input sufficient details on the nature of work (Job Description) • Approved - this post is approved by us • Remark • My comment on your placement record; in particular, indicate what is/are missing.

Assessment • Write a training report of ~1000 words • Outline the work you performed • Provide a description and evaluation of the IT and /or software practices used by the organization • Your supervisor will report to us on your professionalism and on the quality of your work • Invite your supervisor to fill in a feedback form • Available on the "Info for Employers" page • Explicitly opened for external partners to view and download • Course Web site -> Info for Employers -> Feedback form • Assessment is based on these two reports
