<collection_method xmlns="http://eprints.org/ep2/data/2.0">Programme evaluation was conducted using an anonymous post-placement survey administered at the end of the work placement week. The survey collected both quantitative and qualitative feedback. Quantitative items asked participants to rate their overall experience, staff support, facilities, activities, and opportunities for collaborative working using a five-point Likert scale. Open-response questions invited students to identify the most valuable aspects of the programme, suggest improvements, and provide additional comments regarding their experiences.</collection_method>
