Course summary

The course focuses on the holistic development of practical, interpersonal and thinking skills. Learning brings together knowledge and understanding with practical and technical skills, through tasks that encourage the development of appropriate vocational behaviours and desirable transferable skills. Students will be exposed to synoptic assessment requiring them to demonstrate that they can identify and use effectively, in an integrated way, an appropriate selection of skills, techniques, concepts, theories and knowledge. Students will learn to apply their learning in realistic contexts. Assessment provides an opportunity to independently select and apply learning from across the programmes in the completion of a vocational task.
