"To us [student knowledge exchange] means partnership - coming in as equals. It's been a brilliant way to engage with our student - viewing it as something for us, as well as for them. It really shaped our designing of the placement and deciding what we were hoping to get out of it, as well as what the student was." TAP 2021 partner

"Everything has been very clear and well set up. We have had a lot of information beforehand, both about the process and about the student." TAP 2021 partner

"It's been a really rare - and valuable - opportunity to learn from someone with a totally different life perspective. [A] complete joy!" TAP 2021 Partner

"The TAP programme is AMAZING. I look forward to it continuing." TAP 2022 Partner

"We work with lots of different internship and placement situations and this has been by far the best organised and resourced. Your whole team has been super helpful with us [and] we’re really grateful. It really has felt like an exchange". TAP 2022 Partner

" I thought it was fantastic [...] the students were very well prepared, self-motivated, reliable and they didn't need babysitting. We've worked with a lot of student placements and student volunteers and [with] most programmes there hasn't been that preparation. This had support and preparation - it made a massive difference and they were just a pleasure to work with - it felt like we were just working with colleagues" TAP 2022 Partner
