Module Content
Outline Syllabus:Negotiating a learning agreement. Undertake and complete projects or WBL placement according to stated aims and objectives.
Additional Information:Projects within employment or Work Based Learning placements are essential to enable theory application to be put into practice in a work situation. Furthermore they are vital to introduce future employment opportunities and develop managerial skills. This module, ideally, will build upon learning at level 4 and, through the utilisation of setting targets through an appropriate learning agreement negotiated between the employer and the student (with the assistance of the course tutor through a work placement visit), develop the student's skills and management potential further. Within the course progression there should be an interesting degree of responsibility and independent work. A project should be undertaken for the Agency, where possible. It is feasible that a student, having recognised that one sector of the industry isn’t right for their future, has a change of direction, although they should strive to maximise their development regardless.
