What to do next

Before your placement starts:

  • send your student orientation checklist to the placement coordinator at your university or training organisation
  • give the record of your allied health student training and signed student deed poll to the clinical educator at your placement facility.

You won't be able to start your placement until you complete all training and documentation.

For help with what you need to do, talk to your placement coordinator. We have information for education providers to help them support your clinical placement.
