How will I be taught?
The course is made up of 4 modules. In this qualification learners engage with study through project work. Development is progressive taking learners through a range of workshops and assignments during Module 1 to practice and refine ideas, skills and technique across a variety of specialisms. This is followed by a project brief for Module 2 that allows you to develop chosen skills further. In year two learners specialise. Module 3 involves researching progression routes and preparing portfolio and interview techniques. Module 4 involves a personal project in which peer assessment and one-to-one discussions and personalised target setting support your learning. Here the learner is at the pinnacle of their learning when they are awarded their overall grade, Pass, Merit or Distinction.
