Defence is currently undertaking planning for activities to re-commence in 2021. As placements are planned and confirmed, they will be advertised through the “Placements” tab. We encourage you to check our website regularly.
A body of work has been completed to ensure that future placements are planned with participant and Defence personnel safety in mind. For more information on Defence’s response to COVID-19 visit the Defence COVID-19 website
