Course programme
Within Level 4 (year one), assessment is modular based with students being required to complete a variety of written tasks, case studies and presentations. There is a proposed open book examination as part of the assessment process.
On Level 5 (year 2), assessment is also modular based. However, at this level, there is a greater emphasis on students being independent and completing module assignments relating to their own chosen study area, interests and career progression.
Successful candidates may top-up to an honours degree at the University of Worcester or seek related employment.
