Speaking as a 'graduate' from this scheme, I can confirm that the placements are really very, very good and well worth an application.:face-approve:
Just a quick correction - this scheme has been running since 2003. I know because I was one of the first two people to be offered one, all those years ago!! :face-stir:
The first two placements were in the EH Archaeological Survey and Investigation Team, and the scheme has expanded since then to encompass the variety and number of placements now offered . The scheme was orginally administered EH, but expanded considerably when the IFA took over the administration of the scheme a few years back, at about the time they launched their own workplace bursary scheme.
There seem to be a couple more placements this year than in previous years, but I wait to be corrected if I'm wrong.
