Introduction
Work placement is a critical component of the course to assist our students in
being job-ready with a strong emphasis on “learning by doing” and a focus on
gaining first-hand knowledge by working in the industry. It is designed to
provide the students with the opportunity, and the means, to:
• Apply theory to professional practice.
• Practice required clinical skills
• Collect performance evidence requirements for each unit,
requiring a demonstration of competence in the workplace.
Workplacement for the Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care
consists of workplace learning and activities and the completion of 150
hours.
The units where workplace learning and assessment are required are:

Assessment requirements
The following information includes general assessment requirements and
information for students at ALG.
There is an index of the underlined words at the end of this document.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
This is a process of recognising student’s formal and informal learning from
work experience that is related to the qualification being studied in
Australia. Students will need to provide documented evidence of their
learning, which will then be assessed by an ALG assessor to determine the
competency outcomes of the qualification. Please refer to the ALG website
for further information, the link is here. Other forms of recognition include:
• Recognition of Current Competencies (RCC). Recognising
knowledge and skills gained at work.
• Direct Credit Transfer (CT). Credit units achieved at other Australian
training providers
Reasonable Adjustment
This process is made to support a student who has an impairment, disability,
or long-term condition. This may include modifying course material,
modifying or providing equipment as well as modifying an environment. ALG
provides reasonable adjustment for a student to complete required
assessments. This can take place online and/or in the workplace. Please refer
to the student handbook link here for further information or refer to the ALG
website for further information. Link is here. NOTE: Any modification cannot
affect competency outcomes.
Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN)
This is a student support program provided by ALG to assist students who
may need extra help with their reading, writing and communication skills to
successfully progress through their course.
Students may be encouraged to attend weekly LLN classes delivered for 1
hour between weeks two and nine of each term. Please refer to this link for
further information. To view available sessions and make a booking for an
