Delivery

The course is €˜delivered’ online through an easy-to-use, e-learning platform that stores the learning (reading) material and assessment tasks. Almost everything is managed through the online portal.

Unlike other training providers, though, we only assign students with one primary Assessor to mark all of your assessments from start to finish. It’s one of our personal touches. By working with only one Assessor, you get the advantage of building rapport with an industry expert who can better guide and support you because they will get to know you and will have an understanding of your specific needs and circumstances.

Work Placement

This course requires a minimum of 120 hours of work experience. This is mandatory for anyone who isn’t already working in the industry. It’s a structured program that involves completing a set of written and practical tasks in the workplace.

We’ll help you find an employer who is willing to provide you with work experience and support you through the practical skills component of the course. If you’re already working in the industry, you’ll need to complete these tasks in your current workplace.

Recognition Of Prior Learning

If you have related prior qualifications and professional experience, you could be eligible for RPL (recognition) which means you could be exempt from having to study part or all of a qualification.

It’s a smart way to move up and remain current by holding the most updated qualification. RPL is a process which starts with a simple self-assessment questionnaire so we can advise you to proceed with the application or suggest some further training or experience.

Assessment

This course is designed on competency-based learning, which means there are no tests or exams. Instead, there are a range of assessment tasks, including:

  • Short answer questions
  • Written activities
  • Projects
  • Observation of practical skills
  • Portfolio based evidence
