Assessment

The assessment is based on four assessment objectives: Knowledge – understanding theory and relevant terminology. Application – linking the knowledge to relevant case studies and examples. Analysis – developing ideas and explaining issues, using theory and evidence to support the argument. Evaluation – weighing up costs and benefits and drawing conclusions. Three 2-hour examinations will be taken at the end of the two-year course. There is a wealth of resources available for free access on the internet and provided by businesses.
