Assessment

Assessment is at the unit level and may consist of a variety of assessment instruments, including assignment work, practical work, presentations and time-constrained tests. All assessments are criterion-referenced and students are informed of the grading criteria in advance. Each assessment component is graded either Pass, Merit or Distinction. The overall qualification will be graded between a P (pass) and D* (distinction star), based on the combination of the individual unit outcomes. Assessed work must be submitted by a strict deadline. Learners will be assessed on their practical skills by workshop instructors and issued with a certificate of completion.
