Placement is a great opportunity to put all your knowledge into practice.

Aged Care Training Services will arrange Practical Placement for eligible individuals where required! We work with a number of reputable facilities in the Melbourne regional and metropolitan areas. We always aim to place individuals in a facility that is close and convenient for their individual needs.
