How you'll be assessed

You will be assessed in a variety of ways and be expected to take an active role in discussions, role plays, group tasks and questioning. You will learn theoretical business concepts and principles and apply that knowledge in a vocational setting through internally set projects (55%), externally set and assessed case studies and assessments (45%). The advantage of this is that you have more control over your final grade as you can monitor and track grades in individual units when they are completed.
