Program delivery and structure
Approach to learning and assessmentWork integrated learningProgram structureProgram transition planApproach to learning and assessment
The approach to learning and assessment for this program will include both supervised and non-supervised forms of training delivery.
Supervised training is teacher directed learning and assessment activities. This includes:
- structured online learning activities where there is real time access to your teachers e.g. online lectures, teacher led discussions and online activities
- face-to-face learning e.g. tutorials, lectures, scheduled classes
- assessment tasks
The supervised hours in this program are: 1356
You will also need to work independently, this includes:
Independent study activities such as research, reading, practical and/or theoretical practice tests or assessments, work placements which are not directly linked to an assessment of course competencies.
Successful completion of this program requires you to demonstrate that you are competent in all of the 22 units of competency.
For learning and assessment purposes these units have been grouped into the areas shown below:
Year 1 Courses:
Foundation Skills, Construction and Design Technology in Residential Buildings, and Digital Communication and BIM
CPCWHS1001 Prepare to Work Safely in the Construction Industry
VU23444 Comply with Relevant Legislation in the Design of Residential Buildings

BSBPMG426 Apply project risk management techniques
VU23458 Undertake complex architectural projects
The grouping of units reflects the nature of the project-centred learning approach to delivery and the practice of co-assessment of some units within the groupings. Your learning experience will include participation in supervised interactive design and documentation studio sessions providing you with access to experienced staff and peer review. You will also engage in the analysis of case studies, on-line research and accessing specific discipline related on-line resources for direct integration into project work. Underpinning knowledge and skill development will occur throughout the program. Courses in this program are assessed as 'competent' or 'not yet competent'.
If you have a long term medical condition and/or disability it may be possible to negotiate to vary aspects of the learning or assessment methods. You can contact the program coordinator or Equitable Learning Services if you would like to find out more.
Top of pageWork integrated learning
RMIT University is committed to providing you with an education that strongly links formal learning with professional or vocational practice. As a student enrolled in this RMIT University program you will:
- Undertake and be assessed on structured activities that allow you to learn, apply and demonstrate your professional or vocational practice;
- Interact with industry and community when undertaking these activities;
- Complete these activities in real work contexts or situations;
and in addition, these interactions and the work contexts provide distinctive sources of feedback to you to assist your learning.
Any or all of these aspects of a WIL experience will be simulated.
