Student Placement
CASA Mental Health aims to provide post-secondary students with meaningful, inclusive and hands-on learning opportunities within its many programs and departments. CASA offers student placements in both clinical and non-clinical areas.
Clinical placements can include:
- Clinical social work
- Occupational therapy
- Nursing
- Counselling psychology
- Child and adolescent psychiatry
- Medical office assistance
- Child and youth care
Non-clinical placements can include:
- Business Intelligence
- Occupational Health and Patient Safety
- People and Culture
- Philanthropy
We encourage field placement coordinators to directly request placements on behalf of education institutions by emailing CASA’s Student Placement department. If you are a student and do not have a field placement coordinator, please reach out directly.
Student placement requests should include the following information:
- Name and description of the education program
- Student’s resume and cover letter explaining your interest in CASA and our services
- Approximate dates of placement and number of hours to be completed
- Preceptor requirements (e.g. does the preceptor need to be a Registered Social Worker?)
Although CASA aims to accommodate as many quality placements as possible, requests cannot be guaranteed and depend on preceptor availability.
