Work experience
Work experience with NSFT offers individuals the opportunity to gain an insight into the world of work. Work experience takes place in the workplace and allows people to experience what it is like to undertake a job supervised by staff who already work in the environment. Some work experience placements offer a hands-on experience of appropriately risk assessed activities, while some provide insights, observation and work shadowing.
