“…However, it is worth mentioning that research around the relationship between theoretical education and practical experience has been done in abundance providing clarity on roles of stakeholders in WIL (Yiu and Law, 2012;Stanley, 2005;Choy and Delahaye, 2011). The same can be said about research done on the benefits of WIL (Weible, 2010;Pitout, 2009;Zopiatis and Theocharous, 2013;Rudman and Terblanche, 2012;Leslie and Richardson, 2000), research on expectations of WIL (Cannon and Arnold, 2010;Kelley-Patterson and George, 2001;Stone and McLaren, 1999;Emslie, 2009), perceptions of WIL (Petrillose and Montgomery, 1998;Lam and Ching, 2007;Ross and Elechi, 2002;Kay and DeVeau, 2013;Cho, 2006;Tse, 2010;Beggs et al, 2008) and the contribution of WIL (Walo, 2001;Zopiatis, 2007;Groenewald and Schurink, 2003). The results of all these studies can be summed-up as providing useful information about WIL in areas identified above but all these studies fall short in assessing the supervisor's assessments of WIL and students' analysis of their own WIL experience.…”
