Student Placement Opportunities

At Pearson Allied Health Services, we strongly believe that it is important for allied health students to have an opportunity to gain experience working in paediatrics or in the disability sector whilst completing their studies. To ensure we provide a high quality student placement, giving students an opportunity to experience as much as possible and receive the necessary support and supervision, we will only accept a small number of students at any one time.

If interested in a student placement opportunity with Pearson Allied Health Services, please regularly review our website as we will list current student placement opportunities.

Please note, in addition to our clinical student placements, Pearson Allied Health Services hires third and fourth year allied health students as part of our Mentor team. These are paid positions, providing students an opportunity to gain experience working with people with disabilities and an opportunity to develop their clinical skills through implementing therapist developed programs and strategies.
