Course Delivery and Aims


Dates: Classes commence 1st Jun 2020 and finish 16th Nov 2020. Graduation 30th Nov.


Delivery: Your Course modules are delivered each week on Monday. We aim to work in bite-sized, progressive chunks, therefore content is only made available on the scheduled dates (see next page for dates/timeline). Due to the nature of this type of learning, it is best to focus completely on the weekly task before moving on. This ensures thorough learning, and will help you meet your goals each for each module, without distraction.


Each Monday you will receive a course module with the following, and have one week (2-3 hours) to complete that section:


  • Class Videos with Keti - This session will introduce the module and course content, with an in-depth look at the focus area. All questions from hub are answered. This class is approximately 30 minutes.
  • Course Content for that Module - You will receive all the videos, notes and any other downloads via your platform. The video content is between 60 minutes in total and there will be 30 minutes of reading material and notes.
  • A checklist - of tasks to complete within the week, and suggested practice sessions.


Study Time:

On average, each fortnight you will require around 2-3 hours of study time - 1 hour assimilating the course content and 1-2 hours revision and practice. Around 50% of this time will be theory (watching videos, reading notes) and 50% will be practice.


Exams:

Exams are inbuilt into our schedule. At exam time you will receive your exam quiz and practical delivery (which will be in the form of filming, a brief spoken video or curriculum planning).
