THE PHOENIX WORK EXPERIENCE ENTITLEMENT

Where practicable and appropriate, every learner will be offered access to meaningful workplace experience.

This may include:

  • work placements
  • employer visits
  • job shadowing
  • volunteering
  • industry projects
  • workplace simulations
  • employer-led workshops
  • vocational tasters
  • mentoring
  • apprenticeship encounters.

Work Experience

Phoenix believes that Work Experience should not simply occupy time, but should answer questions as follows: 

  • What did I learn?
  • What did I demonstrate?
  • What did the employer observe?
  • What did I learn about myself?
  • Could I see myself working here?
  • What do I need to develop next?
    Employer feedback becomes part of the learner's Phoenix Progression Passport.
