### Description

Opportunity for seventh-year students to explore wizarding careers at the British Ministry of Magic

This **student programme** was sponsored by the British Ministry of Magic, offering seventh-year students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry a chance to experience different wizarding careers first-hand before graduation. Participants were supervised by Ministry employees, who would assign them to various tasks and real-world incidents that the Ministry was investigating.

It had been organised for several years as of the 1990–1991 school year.

## History

At some point before 1990, Amos Diggory, an employee at the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, was in charge of the programme.

During the 1990–1991 school year, it was overseen by Wilkie Twycross. Headmaster Albus Dumbledore sent several seventh-year students to the Ministry to receive their assignments.

Jacob's sibling and Nymphadora Tonks were assigned to Alastor Moody at the Auror Office; Charlie Weasley and Liz Tuttle to the Improper Use of Magic Office; Barnaby Lee and Ben Copper to the Misuse of Muggle Artefacts Office. Jacob's sibling, Barnaby, Charlie and Liz were later reassigned to the Beast Division in the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures for related tasks. Later still, Jacob's sibling and Ben were reassigned to the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes.

## Assignments
