Description including Unit Aims

The placement may take one of the following forms: 1. 2-3 hours a week are spent in the placement for a period of 10 weeks (one hour every 5 weeks is given to reflection with the supervisor); 2. a 2-week block (2 hours over that period will be given specifically to reflection with the supervisor). The placement is experientially oriented as a complement to the rest of the course. The student will make connections between the placements and other academic disciplines being studied. Secular agencies, sector ministries and overseas churches and agencies are used for the placement.
