InPlace Quarter 4 2014 Update – Monash, USQ, UNE, UWS & Robert Gordon University

Monash University’s Faculty of Education went live with InPlace in July 2014, the well respected Faculty boasts a student population of over 5000 across all campuses, including the original teachers college of Peninsula and the Clayton campus.
The highly regarded School of Nursing and Midwifery went live with InPlace subsequently and all feedback has been very positive.

Affiliated with Monash University is Monash College’s – Professional Pathways Australia which offers a year long course across a range of disciplines designed to assist in job readiness by preparing graduates for success in the workplace. The courses include a large component of work experience/internships which will be managed through InPlace.

The enterprise wide implementation is being led by Monash staff with minimal assistance from the InPlace team.

Implementation currently underway to the University of Southern Queensland, Phase 1 of the project began mid October 2014 and will have a go live of January 2015 across 5 major disciplines into 2 Faculties – Education, Nursing, Health, Human Services and Psychology.
Each discipline manages a large placement program as part of a diverse study offering with a focus on community and workplace engagement for students.

Phase 2 will look towards a university wide rollout of InPlace to all disciplines offering placements.
