Student Placements

CatholicCare is committed to the future of the social services sector and the people who work in it.

CatholicCare will provide interesting and challenging learning opportunities for students through a structured Student Placement program.


Limited placements may be offered in the following areas:

  • Psychology
  • Social Work
  • Counselling
  • Social Sciences
  • Community Welfare
  • People & Culture

Placements are conditional on a number of factors including placement vacancies at a given time, changing operational demands on the agency and candidates’ suitability. CatholicCare receives many applications for student placements each year and competition for places is strong. Each candidate must provide a resume and attend an interview, as part of the application process, before being considered for a placement. Student placements will need to be verified with your tertiary institution (usually TAFE, University or registered training organisation).

To improve your chances of success, plan ahead. Submit your resume early and provide as much supporting information from your tertiary institution as possible. Applications will be considered and placements offered at CatholicCare’s sole discretion.
