You are asked to submit your portfolio as an electronic document. As it is likely to contain a substantial amount of evidence it will be large, and therefore unlikely to be suitable to be emailed.
We ask that you submit your portfolio as a Microsoft Word document, so that your assessor and Internal Quality Assurer can comment on it. And as such, it is likely that you will need to submit it via an online platform, such as OneDrive, Google Drive or Drop Box.
Speak to your tutor if you are unsure about how to do this.
The portfolio submission date will be shared with you on the first day of your course, as well as being available below- in the course dates section.
You have access to the Facebook group where you can support your peers, as well as benefit from their support, ideas and comments. Feel free to ask questions in the group! If you haven’t already, you can request to join via this link.
Throughout the programme you can contact your tutor/assessor for support. Your tutor will share their contact details with you.
There is also a series of monthly webinars, where theories, units and progress will be discussed. The dates and times of these will be shared via the Facebook group.
