There’s a few significant changes, one of which is to have more mandatory content, which is great for employers and for a professional body like

ourselves, that students coming to us will, we can be certain, have similar levels of knowledge skills and understanding in similar areas.

Skills for Learning and Work These customisable activity sheets are available for your students to work through as part of your delivery of the course.

Re-submissionsEach internal assignment can be submitted once, within 15 days of the original work being returned to the student. Learners can improve their grade, whether that’s to reach the Pass threshold, or to achieve a narrowly-missed Merit or Distinction.

Re-takesIf a learner is still short of the Pass threshold, then they can re-take the assessment for that unit, against a new assignment brief which covers only Pass criteria.

Re-sitsStudents can re-sit externally assessed units once, in the next available assessment window. Because students will take a new paper or task brief, grades aren’t capped in re-sits, and they can improve their unit grade.
