Summary

Create a Site Focus Value

Process Overview

Only Placement Administrators have access to enter, update, or correct Site Focus values.  If you are not a Placement Administrator, send an email request to your Placement Administrator.

Site Focus values are a key element of Organisations and Sites when configuring Placement Providers, and are subsequently used in the Placement Request process.

A Site Focus represents the core activity(ies) a student would undertake at the Site.  The Site may have one or many Site Focus values assigned to it, and combined Site Focus values can occur to show a hybrid placement.

Site Focus values should only be combined in the title where it is strictly a combined Focus in all instances.

!Warning:  Prior to creating a new Site Focus value, you must first perform a thorough search of the existing Site Focus values to ensure the required value does not already exist (this prevents duplicate values).  Only create a new Site Focus value if you fail to find an existing value for the Site Focus.
