The VNPA is looking for tertiary students to take part in our Student Placement Program.
This program is independently hosted by the VNPA, and presents an exciting opportunity to gain professional work experience in the not-for-profit sector. The VNPA is interested in working with students who have a passion for Victoria’s natural environment and national parks, and who are keen to gain more experience in environmental outreach and advocacy.
Some comments about the program from past students include:
“Being in an environment with so many people doing positive things has been pretty inspiring and added to feelings of hope.” – Gemma
“A VNPA placement will help cement the path of your passion. Whether it’s the science of conservation, or conversations about science, VNPA has it all.” – Jeremy
“My placement has been one which has given me a wealth of knowledge and appreciation for environmental science and conservation in Victoria, and has greatly contributed to my professional development.” – Rachel
Please see below for more information, placement vacancies, and for instructions on how to apply.
Applications for the 2024 Student Placement Program will open later this year.
Please ensure you have read the guidelines before contacting us.
