Abstract
Many degrees include the option to undertake a mandatory or elective practicum placement. For the most part, students find participation a rewarding learning experience that provides invaluable exposure to the world of work and connects classroom theory to the workplace.
But, research I recently undertook with Dr Laura de Zwaan found that participation can also be financially challenging due to the costs associated with travel, accommodation, materials and uniforms.
