The assessment will range between written assignments, group work, and individual and group presentations.

Each module is worth 15 credits.  If you successfully complete one, two or three modules, you will receive a Certificate of Unit Credit (CoUC) upon completion of the individual units.  If you finish 8 units, you will awarded a HNC.  You can progress onto other units, and then onto a HNC or HND.
