Practical Placement Disclosure

Biba Academy does not require students enrolled in Skills First-funded programs to undertake a practical placement as part of their course. All training and assessment are delivered in a simulated or real workplace environment within Biba Academy’s facilities, ensuring students achieve the required vocational competencies without the need for external placement. Where a course may include optional industry experience or work-based learning activities, this will be clearly communicated to students prior to enrolment and is not a mandatory requirement for course completion.
