Work‑Related‑Learning.com, Learn‑in‑a‑Flash.com and Work‑Based‑Learning.com form a single, specialised network connecting schools, training centres and organisations with students seeking structured, curriculum‑linked work experiences.
Our site and services are created with host organisations in mind: we make it easy, safe and efficient for businesses, non‑profits and cultural organisations to open their doors to motivated students.
To expand high‑quality, work‑based learning by matching reliable hosts with prepared students—so placements are educationally valuable, professionally useful and well‑managed.
We are an experienced team of educators and placement coordinators with a long family tradition in language teaching and student mobility. One strand of our group — the team behind Learn‑in‑a‑Flash.com — grew from three generations of teachers and over 20 years of work designing study‑and‑stay programmes, from classic study holidays to personalised adult and youth placements. That pedagogical depth informs how we design traineeships and unpaid work experiences today.
Across two decades we have built and supported hundreds of student placements and study stays. We specialise in creating structured learning plans, providing clear role briefs and ensuring every placement has achievable learning objectives and measurable outcomes.
We understand hosts must be confident that every student placement meets legal, health & safety and educational standards. For this reason we:
Require clear role descriptions and supervision plans from hosts.
Verify organisations before listing and collect any necessary documentation (insurance, registration, safeguarding where applicable).
Communicate the legal basis for curricular traineeships and unpaid work experience relevant to the student’s home institution and local rules, and advise hosts on best practice.
If you need us to support specific paperwork or compliance checks, we provide guidance and templates to make the process straightforward.
Hosting a student is easier when you know there’s someone local to turn to. We maintain local contacts and coordinators in our operating regions and provide prompt support for:
Pre‑placement briefing and onboarding for students.
Rapid response to issues during the placement (logistics, pastoral concerns, language barriers).
Post‑placement evaluation and certification.
Our goal is to reduce the administrative and supervisory burden on hosts while protecting the student’s learning experience.
Register — create a free organisation profile and list your placement.
Define the role — give us a short role brief, supervision plan and learning outcomes.
Match — we promote the opportunity to suitable students and schools and support shortlisting.
Onboard — we help prepare the student and provide templates for induction and risk assessment.
Support — we remain available for check‑ins and problem‑solving during the placement.
Evaluate — we collect feedback from you and the student and provide a short report or certificate.
Motivated participants: students come prepared and eager to learn.
Low admin overhead: we handle promotion, matching and initial checks.
Clear educational value: placements are designed with learning outcomes that benefit both student and host.
Reputational benefits: hosting helps your organisation engage the local community and develop young talent.
Provide a named supervisor and a short induction plan.
Keep tasks meaningful and linked to clear learning goals.
Allow time for reflection and feedback—this increases impact for students and value for hosts.
If you are interested in hosting students, please get in touch: we will review your organisation profile, help draft the role brief, and arrange the first matches.
