Approach to learning and assessment

After the enrolment, students will be able to log on to the RMIT Course Guide system to access the learning methodology and assessment procedures for each course.

Students will participate in their learning experience through:

Interactive presentations, labs, and tutorials
Assessments 
Simulated industry activities
Work Integrated Learning (WIL)
Workshop activities
Structured prescribed reading
Projects and assignments
Prescribed follow-up activities
Discipline practice 

Face-to-face, online (CANVAS) delivery, laboratory exercises, project-based research with presentations and written reports and online assessments are used to facilitate training and learning.

Assessment for this program will be Competency-based. Assessments may include:

practical/written assessments
presentations
team or individual work-simulated projects

If students have a long-term medical condition and/or disability they can apply for adjustments to their study and assessment (Equitable Assessment Arrangements) by registering with the Equitable Learning Services (ELS) at https://www.rmit.edu.au/students/support-and-facilities/student-support/equitable-learning-services

Work integrated learning

RMIT University is committed to providing students with an education that strongly links formal learning with workplace experience or simulation. When students enroll in this program they will be assessed on structured activities that allow them to learn, apply and demonstrate vocational competency.

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

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