Formal Assessment
Participants are asked to respond to a brief as part of their formal assessment and have two weeks to prepare their materials in advance of a presentation to the assessment panel. Final accreditation is split evenly across participants’ ability to demonstrate both written and oral skills.
Further details of this formal assessment can be found in ‘How is the course assessed?’ in our course FAQ section.
