Australia and Asia Pacific InPlace User Group Conference 2019

The 8th InPlace User Group hosted over 140 representatives from 25 Higher Education Institutes throughout Australia and abroad who came together in Melbourne for two days of networking, product and peer to peer learning from August 7th – 9th 2019.

The InPlace User Group is organised in collaboration by a committee of the users from various sites, and sponsored by InPlace and fit2work. The event comprised a packed agenda of informative and entertaining sessions, as well as an excellent networking opportunity for Work Integrated Learning practitioners.

This year activities included discipline specific placement-process focus groups, InPlace demonstrations, ‘tips and tricks’ and sneak previews of exciting new features on the InPlace roadmap, as well as informed discussions on the challenges and opportunities in the current WIL landscape and the rising focus on student employability.

“Never thought I’d be so excited to attend an IT conference…InPlace keeps getting better and better”
Lara Demetrios, Team Leader, Placement Service ACU

This was the largest User Group yet, and was hosted at a new venue in downtown Melbourne to accommodate the capacity audience. The atmosphere was buzzing with excitement and anticipation of great things to come from the InPlace team.

Special thanks to the conference committee of University of South Australia, Federation University, La Trobe University, Victoria University, and QuantumIT, which hosted and organised the event in collaboration.

Update 21 August

Sharing some conference feedback from the Anonymous survey:

“Conferences, in general, can be fairly stale but I must say I was very impressed. Well organised and fun team – competitions and prizes were a great touch to keep people engaged and give our brains a break. Well done! The next organising committee has quite the challenge to meet those expectations :)”

“Of all conferences I have been to over 30 years, this had the best structure in terms of facilitating networking and allowing users to exchange ideas and experiences on the usage of the product. Keep it up!”

“I think the conference this year was planned very well. It covered relevant and current issues. The ability to network with others was excellent.”

“It was interesting to hear how other education providers were managing placements and how different they were. It was good to hear the areas of strengths and weaknesses of the different arrangements.”

We agree, the User Group organising team next year does have their work cut out for them.

  • CONEL become InPlace's first UK Further Education client to manage student work experience and placement programs

The first UK Further Education institute joins InPlace to fulfill student work experience

We welcome our new client, The College of Haringey, Enfield and the North East London

The InPlace Team are delighted to welcome The College of Haringey, Enfield and North East London (CONEL) – the first Further Education institute in the UK to partner with InPlace, to manage student work experience and placements at scale.

CONEL was voted the top Further Education college in England in the FE Choices Learner Satisfaction Survey 2016/17. The institute offers over 300 vocational courses and apprenticeships which are taught with a learner-centric approach. These and heavily geared towards industry outcomes and community.

CONEL has deployed InPlace Software across its varied programs; including Hair & Beauty Therapy, Construction, and Science & Engineering.

Getting ready to scale up the placement & work experience process

From September 2019, CONEL will be London’s first college to offer free tuition to students doing entry level, level 1 and level 2 courses – regardless of their age or income. This fantastic offering is anticipated to result in a significant increase in enrolments from young local people.

Another key challenge for the College is preparation for T-Levels. T-Levels are new courses equivalent to A Levels (post GCSE) that will aim to align 16-18 year olds more closely with the workplace. To illustrate, the curriculum includes ‘long-term’ work placements requiring students to gain real industry experience.

CONEL has therefore prioritised the need for an ‘all-in-one’ system to manage the growth in placements they will deliver in 2019 and beyond.

Thoughts from CONEL’s team

With InPlace being rolled out across the College, Head of Quality and Compliance Carl Boyd feels optimistic about scaling the administrative management of placements:

“Our objective at CONEL is to ensure that each student undertakes real world industry experience that is relevant to their goals and interests. It’s not about compliance and simply ensuring all of our 16-18 learners go out on a placement. It’s about creating a genuine impact for the students. This will be achieved by giving them the opportunity to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours they need to be work ready. InPlace will serve us in scaling our placement management process so every student can have meaningful industry experience.”

InPlace look forward to supporting CONEL as they endeavour to give more students the opportunity to develop their employability skills.
