Aims
The Career Focused Development module provides students with the opportunity to further analyse the skills required to undertake work-related learning interlinking with other applied modules to be studied throughout the year. The increasingly varied and portfolio nature of careers mean that successful graduates need both core professional skills and the ability to plan and manage their careers in changing contexts.
