The world of Work Integrated Learning (WIL) at UTS has been very active in recent years, with the advent of the WIL Framework and the Professional Education and Practice Network (PEPN). PEPN is a merger of Careers and WIL networks, and was established at the inaugural UTS WIL Symposium in September 2021. Since then we have had various PEPN meetups and have shared good WIL practices in critical dialogues culminating in three WIL Symposia.

Save the date for the 2024 WIL Symposium

Mark your calendars for 29 July!

The world-cafe style WIL Symposiums feature top-tier WIL practice showcases, WIL work in progress and a student panel. This year, the symposium is at the Moore Park Sports Science facility where participants will have a special tour and a catered lunch.
