Delivery
Delivery Methods
Workshops are scheduled at weekly intervals for normal ("fee for service") enrolments in this program due to the number of practical assessment tasks required. Mentoring is available for distance education students if required. A minimum of six confirmed enrolments is required for us to facilitate a workshop. If we do not have sufficient enrolments to facilitate a workshop, you will be offered either a deferral or distance education with mentoring.
Seminars/workshops can also be facilitated for specific units, subject to sufficient enrolments being confirmed.
Please contact us for further details, particularly if there are identified delivery/assessment issues for a unit or units which you need to include, or you wish to confirm an appropriate selection for a specific job role.
Delivery issues
Our enrolment form contains an explanation of practical assessment issues which could require negotiation when undertaken by distance education:
