Work Experience Portal / Collection, Use & Disclosure

NSCC keeps track of all student work experiences (excluding professional practice placements) using NSCC’s Work Experience Portal. This portal allows us to easily record and monitor work experiences in a single searchable database. The portal contains your personal details (such as name, email, phone, emergency contact, gender, language, and citizenship) employer-partner information, and work experience specific (start and end dates, hours, wage if applicable etc.).

Professional Practice placements have a similar tracking system known as the Professional Practice Portal. This system is utilized by Nova Scotia Health and the IWK Hospital for placing students. We prioritize safeguarding the information shared by students and employers. We also uphold the value of informed consent, ensuring both students and employers are aware of the stored information. If you have privacy or data usage inquiries, please reach out to us at WorkExperience@nscc.ca

For any questions related to your program’s work experience or work-integrated learning in general, please don’t hesitate to email us at WorkExperience@nscc.ca. We’re here to help!
