The program is designed around you. ie: how you can get the best from the experience as well as how we can get the best from you. It will involve a number of rotations to different business units within your field of study.

Program Schedule
Our Graduate Programs commence in late January and run for 12 months depending upon the stream that is being offered. (More detail on the length of each stream is under each of the stream descriptions).
Each stream has identified placements that you will rotate through as part of the program. Each placement is designed so that you are involved in the team and gain an understanding of day to day activity but you will also be involved in specific projects or initiatives that will support both the department and the business.
At the midway point of the program you will have an opportunity to reflect on the program to date and provide feedback to the business on your experiences. During this reflective process you will be required to assess your completion towards achieving the goals set at the commencement of the program.
At the end of the program there will be a more formal review of the your goals as well as a requirement to present to the Senior Leadership Team on your experiences in the program overall.
