The definitive instruments for regulatory purposes remain the TEQSA Act and the Higher Education Standards Framework as amended from time to time.  \n1. What does work-integrated learning encompass?  \nIn the context of the Higher Education Standards Framework (Threshold Standards) 2021 (HES Framework), work-integrated learning (WIL) encompasses any arrangement where students undertake learning in a work context as part of their course requirements. WIL can be undertaken as part of coursework or research training.  \nWIL activities may include:  \n• professional workplace placements (also known as internships, clinical placements, fieldwork, practicums) whether local, interstate or international  \n• online or virtual WIL (e.g. telehealth) with real clients or industry input  \n• industry-partnered projects in the classroom (e.g. hackathons, incubators/start-ups) that involve industry , community or professional partners  \n• a simulated work environment with industry input, consultation or assessment , or  \n• activities in other contexts involving industry or community partners.  \nThe nature and scope of WIL may vary in purpose (with a focus on technical skill acquisition, professionalism, professional responsibility, identity and values, enculturation to professional roles etc), duration (short-term to long-term, part-time or full-time), timing in the curriculum (in the first, middle or final years), extent of supervision and tasks and responsibility given to students, as well as the extent of integration of the student learning with the activities of the workplace or with the remainder of the student’s coursework.  \nIn all cases WIL experiences must build towards the learning outcomes of a course and meet other HES Framework requirements such as those regarding staff qualifications, professional accreditation and student support tailored to the needs of the cohort. The specific variations in the form of the WIL activity and the field of study should also be considered in accordance with the HES Framework.  \nPositive WIL experiences can enable a provider to build and grow relationships with industry or community organisations to inform and enhance approaches to teaching and learning. Importantly, positive WIL experiences ensure that students have educationally sound opportunities to further develop and demonstrate their learning and build their professional networks. Developing good practice in WIL is a dynamic field of educational research and practice. TEQSA recognises this dynamism as a strength and will support innovative approaches to WIL, providing that they safeguard the quality of the student experience and meet the applicable requirements under the HES Framework and other applicable laws.  \n2. What TEQSA will look for  \nThe HES Framework requires TEQSA to consider a provider’s WIL arrangements both directly under Standard 5.4.1 as well as indirectly through several others, as below:  \n\n| Part A: Standards for HE Providers | Key considerations |\n| --- | --- |\n| 5.4. 1: Delivery with Other Parties | • Provider is to ensure that WIL experiencesand supervisory arrangements for WIL experiences are quality assured |\n| 1.4: Learning Outcomes and Assessment\u003Cbr>3. 1: Course Design | • Methods of assessment are to be appropriate for the level and nature of learning outcomes |\n| 2.3: Wellbeing and Safety\u003Cbr>2.4: Student Grievances and Complaints | • Provider remains responsible for the student’s safety and welfare |\n\nFurther, WIL may form part of a provider’s engagement with employers, industry and the professions (Provider Category Criteria B1 .2.9 and B1 .3. 12, as applicable) .  \nThe HES Framework requires TEQSA to consider the following aspects of a provider’s WIL arrangements:  \n• WIL forms part of a coherent course of study including through sound constructive alignment between expected learning outcomes of a course of stu","cbCaimzHCk40ShxH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimzHCk40ShxH","pdf",214232,"English","# What does work-integrated learning encompass?\n# What TEQSA will look for\n# Common issues","[{\"question\":\"What does work-integrated learning (WIL) include under the HES Framework 2021?\",\"answer\":\"WIL includes any arrangement where students undertake learning in a work context as part of course requirements, including coursework or research training.
