Teaching, nursing, midwifery and social work students may be eligible to receive $319.50 per week while on placements. But experts @drdgrantsmith and Paula McDonald from @usceduau and @QUT say more help is needed.

The A New NTEU website now has posters for you to download, print and paste up around your worksite! A great way to start a conversation with fellow workers about why we need a new NTEU.
Send us or tag us in your photos of support for the campaign.📷

For the first time since I became an NTEU member a decade ago, there is someone running at a state or national level who I am confident has the interests of regular university workers in mind, and who I want to vote for. Read this interview with @a_kanjere and vote for @ANewNTEU
Every year, job conditions for university workers worsen, the result of course cuts, job losses, rising casualisation and spiralling workloads. Now, activists in the National Tertiary Education Union are gearing up to fight back.

How are unpaid internships still a thing in the EU institutions? The fact that someone has a compulsory internship as part of their studies does not in any way invalidate the need for an income. What about students that have to finance themselves? #payyourinterns
😢Time to say goodbye to our trainees. Thank you 🙏 and best of luck in the future!
Every year, we offer 💯 paid traineeships, 20 unpaid, and up to 6 paid traineeships for trainees with a disability.
Applications open: 15 February

So, what is it called when your FOMO is both entirely justified and realised? I think I have that because 2 of my favourite people are lunching in Sydney while I am in Brisbane.

People who are pro-unpaid internships argue students aren’t there for the pay but for the “experience.”
Unfortunately, you can’t go to your landlord and pay rent with experience or go to the grocery store and buy food with experience.

Doing one unpaid internship is no longer enough. Now you need to have two or three of them. This leads to:
1. Socioeconomic filter on who can take these opportunities.
2. Those who are not well off are forced to take out a loan to cover their living expenses.
