How is the course delivered?
The course is an online eLearning course with a difference. Whereas most eLearning courses come to an end when you have worked through the course materials the way this course is delivered means that you will have access to a Community of Practice (CoP) and become part of a community of learners. You will have access to the course materials via a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE).
The course is designed with the greatest flexibility in mind. When you break off from working through the course materials it is possible to pick it up at the same point on your next learning session as the VLE will log and retain the point where you left the course materials. You will also have access to discussion forums led by facilitators where you can raise queries and discuss issues with other, current and former, delegates. This participation in the discussion forums should further refine and develop your skills in Project Management.
Is my learning tested on the course?
There are quizzes at the end of each unit to ensure that you have understood the completed unit.
You will also have access to discussion forums led by facilitators where you can test your knowledge, raise queries, respond to queries and discuss issues with other, current and former, delegates. This will enable you to develop your learning further by applying and sharing your knowledge.
|
What after course support is available?
You will have access to discussion forums led by facilitators where you can raise queries and discuss issues with other delegates who are completing or have already completed the course. This will enable you to develop your learning further by applying and sharing your expertise to solve problems.
