With our specialised internship options for some qualifications and the high standard of our academic material, we have formed partnerships with industry specialists and are often contacted with job opportunities and internship positions. You can access these opportunities on our HFPA Graduates Facebook page once you are accepted and check regularly if something has become available. You have to keep in mind though that the HFPA is not a recruitment agency and jobs are never guaranteed, however with you HFPA qualification, workplace readiness skills and internal practical experience you have acquired, you are more marketable than any other student that has just received a qualification, especially at an online institution not offering these services to students.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\"
