Many students choose to work while they study at SAIBT. Working while you study gives you an excellent opportunity to put the theories and concepts that you are learning within your program of study into practice in the real world. You should make sure that you have settled into a study routine before commencing the search for work, as your study timetable should take priority over any work commitments. 

NOTE: If you are an international student, you must not work unless you have been granted permission to work after commencing study in Australia. You can apply using this form Permission to Work Visa (International Students)
