The 8-week or 10-week Professional Attachment (PA) completed by our NBS students at the end of their second year of study, is carefully crafted to be relevant and enriching, allowing our students to acquire first-hand practical experience and sharpen their skills in the industry. In addition to providing practical real-life work experience for our students to balance their academic training, NBS students also get to interact and network with professionals in the working environment, setting up valuable contacts necessary to give them the edge in the working world. The PA experience often serves as an excellent opportunity for employers to assess our students and their high quality, prior to making a permanent job offer to them, even before graduation.

To adequately prepare students for their PA engagements, students are required to attend a 5-week course, AB228A Career Foundations. Professional Attachment thus comprises 2 components, of total 5 AUs:

AB228A   Careers Foundations                       1AU
AB228B   Professional Attachment                 4AUs
