Policy and Planning
Work Placement
Work placement can help students achieve learning outcomes within a course. Work placement is used alongside other delivery methods such as direct instruction, remote learning, or small group work to provide learning experiences that support students.
Preparing for safe work experiences, and helping students, educators, and employers understand workers’ rights and responsibilities in the workplace, are integral to students’ education and their safe introduction to careers. Resources for educators on safety preparation for student career learning and work experiences are available at Safety Plan Development Session.
Workers’ Compensation Coverage
Workers’ Compensation coverage is provided by Manitoba Education and Early Childhood Learning for students on work placement when eligibility requirements are met.
