You should refer to the assessment brief which is available through Canvas for full assessment criteria and due dates.
Due Dates are provided in both the Syllabus tab and the Assignments tab in Canvas.
Results
Results that apply to courses that are delivered and assessed in accordance with competency-based assessment are:
CA: Competency Achieved
NYC: Not Yet Competent
Assessment Tasks
see Canvas “Assignments” tab for full assessment task details and due dates. In-class components are also shown on the “Syllabus” tab
