Career Service Arts is organisationally involved in the course. You can expect the following things from us:

• The Career Officer judges the approval of the communication assignment and either accepts or refuses.

• Career Service takes care of a limited number of available communication assignments which are meant for students that really cannot find an assignment by themselves.
• Career Service takes care of the administrative side of the course (internship agreement, invoicing regarding the employer, providing the factsheet and course manual, assessment sheet)
• Career Service will take care of the evaluations held with the employer both during and at the end of your assignment (the evaluation during your assignment is done over the phone and the end evaluation concerns the assessment sheet).
• Career Service will make sure that the assessment of your employer will be sent to your teacher.
• We are your contact point whenever you encounter certain situations with your employer. You should ask your teacher if it concerns content-related questions regarding your assignment.
