Approach to learning and assessment

Learning will take place using a number of modes such as:                    

  • Being Work based and work focused;
  • developing new skills and knowledge for the learner;
  • using On-the-job examples and embedding assessments;
  • using simulation for those aspects not available in the current workplace;
  • e-learning for underpinning knowledge the theory

If you have a long term medical condition and/or disability you can apply for adjustments to your study and assessment (Reasonable Adjustments and Equitable Assessment Arrangements) by registering with the Disability Liaison Unit (DLU) at http://www1.rmit.edu.au/browse;ID=01daxmpd1vo4z

Work integrated learning

RMIT University is committed to providing you with an education that strongly links formal learning with workplace experience. As a student enrolled in this RMIT University program you will be assessed on structured activities that allow you to learn, apply and demonstrate vocational competency.

If you are working, particularly in a job which is related to your studies you will also be learning while at work and may have the opportunity to be assessed in your workplace for some or all of your courses. Feedback from work supervisors and others in the workplace can be used as evidence of competency, and an RMIT University assessor can visit your workplace to observe your work practice.

Apprentices studying this program will be attending the workplace on non-school days.
