Join Lisa Chiang from Griffith's Counselling & Wellbeing team, alongside an experienced Placement Coordinator, a recent Griffith graduate, and a current placement student, as they share practical advice and honest insights into navigating placement successfully while maintaining your wellbeing.

Topics will include preparing for placement, managing expectations, looking after your mental wellbeing, overcoming common challenges, seeking support when needed, and making the most of the placement experience. 

The session will consist of a 45-minute panel discussion followed by a 15-minute audience Q&A. 
 

You'll leave this workshop with: 

• Practical tips for preparing for placement  
• Strategies to manage stress and maintain your wellbeing
