What it is
InPlace is an online platform for managing student workplace placements in higher education, healthcare, government, and other placement programs. It supports clinical placements, internships, work-integrated learning, and related experiences across the placement lifecycle. Allocation can be rule-based, selected by students, sourced by students, or advertised by employers. The student portal includes preferences, reminders, log books, timesheets, and calendars. Staff tools cover placement requests, schedules, attendance, communications, agency partnerships, compliance, and reporting, including reports for accreditation. InPlace describes integrations with student record, CRM, financial management, and learning management systems, plus background-check providers. It works in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge, as well as on tablets and mobile devices. The company says it is hosted on Microsoft Azure according to regional requirements, follows data protection regulations including GDPR, PII, PIPEDA, and FERPA, and undergoes an annual SOC 2 audit. The site also states WCAG Level AA 2.2 compliance. Pricing is not publicly stated. Some schools require students to pay directly for account access once a placement is allocated.
