Abstract
Strategies that were perceived to enhance student engagement in non-metropolitan placements included: tailoring preparation for students, paired rather than individual placements, and near-peer presentations for physiotherapy students prior to undertaking non-metropolitan placements. Dedicated clinical coordinator positions at non-metropolitan sites and assistance in accessing affordable accommodation are likely to positively influence the student experience.
