How does workplace training prepare students for jobs?
Workplace training placements are more than just a course requirement—they're the bridge between classroom learning and real-world success. For business and hospitality students, these placements offer hands-on experience that brings theory to life.
At Hopkins International College, our students gain valuable exposure by working alongside industry professionals in Perth's lively business and hospitality sectors. This experience helps them understand workplace dynamics, develop practical skills, and build confidence.
For example, a hospitality student completing a placement at a busy hotel learns not only service techniques but also teamwork, problem-solving, and customer interaction. Business students might engage with local companies, gaining insights into operations, marketing, and client relations.
These placements mean students graduate ready to hit the ground running, with skills employers value and the confidence to succeed from day one.
If you want an education that truly prepares you for your career, workplace training placements are the key. Are you ready to reach your potential?

The holiday season can be a challenging time, especially for those far from home.

Important Scam Warning
We’ve seen an increase in scams targeting international students, including:
• Criminals asking students to sell their bank accounts or ID
• Using students as money mules
• Buying and selling student identity documents
• Even involving students in illegal activities like animal smuggling
Getting involved in these practices can lead to loss of savings, severe stress, criminal charges, and losing your place in Australian education.
