Experiential Learning Requirements

Experiential Learning “supports students in gaining hands-on learning that helps them transition to employment”^[1]. Experiential Learning can take the form of co-operative education, degree work placement, clinical/field placement, fieldwork/simulation labs, capstone/applied research projects, and service learning.

FSWR students must submit Year one form by deadline in order to proceed to placement https://www.centennialcollege.ca/site-search?q=year%20one%20placement%20form

The status of clinical/field placements and co-op work terms will be subject to public health directives and the reopening plan. Students may complete their placement requirements at sites that are permitted to open, onsite, following appropriate health and safety protocols. Students will be asked to read and sign a Student Informed Consent form in order to ensure that they understand their rights and the potential health and safety risks. Similarly, employers and/or placement hosts will be required to complete an Employer/Placement Health and Safety Site Checklist.

In programs where placements can not be facilitated through alternative/distance models, students will be allowed to complete these components at a later date.
