The learning@home Work Integrated Learning (WiL) Initiative (hereafter WiL Initiative) was introduced as an alternative to graduate stage Professional Experience (PEx) placements for final year Initial Teacher Education (ITE) students during April 2020. The WiL Initiative was introduced due to the COVID-19 restrictions which interrupted PEx placements in schools. Five Queensland Universities and a total of 211 ITE students engaged in the WiL Initiative comprising: Griffith University (105 students), Australian Catholic University (54), University of the Sunshine Coast (23), James Cook University (20), and Central Queensland University (9).
