Your facility workflow

  1. 01 Application Submitted Student applies through the portal with course and availability
  2. 02 Documentation Verified Checks, immunisations and agreements collected and confirmed
  3. 03 Appointment Scheduled Host workplace matched and an introduction booked
  4. 04 Interview In Progress Student meets the host supervisor, live in the portal

This is what a placement looks like from your side of the fence. Every student hosted at your facility moves through the same eight stages, and you see each one update live — no status emails, no chasing.

Getting started

Onboarding takes one call

01

Onboard

We set up your facility profile, add your branches and confirm which qualifications you can host.

02

Set capacity

Tell us how many students each site can take and when. Nothing is sent to you beyond that.

03

Receive students

Matched students arrive with their agreements and inductions already handled.

04

Manage on the app

Rosters, documents and notifications all run through the portal and the mobile app.

Facility questions

Before you onboard

Nothing. Onboarding your facility onto the portal is free, and you set your own capacity per branch.

Yes — there is no limit on branch locations under a single account. Each site appears on the national map with its own capacity, and you can search for students near each one.

You build daily or weekly rosters in the portal. When you change a shift, the affected student is notified immediately through the portal and the mobile app.

Yes. You can contact students through the portal about placement or about employment. Many of our placements convert into paid work with the host facility.
