Topic outline

  • You are about to embark on the Business Experience Placement Preparation Workshop.

    This workshop is designed to mirror the experience of previously run 2 day (14 hour) workshop in preparation for your Industry Placement.

    The workshop is made up of eight (8) modules. You need to work through and complete all eight modules and subsequent quizzes.

    Marks are allocated to the completion of all tasks however these marks do not contribute to your Assignment 1 (Proposal) Grade.

    The marks allocated are a guide of where you are at with your understanding of each of the areas being covered.  

    Completion of all eight quizzes will give you an HD for this section of assignment 1. If you do not complete the quizzes you will receive an F1/F2 for this component as the workshops are compulsory.  

    If you see an "F2" grade against a module you have completed, it will probably correspond to a written response which must be marked manually so please be patient.  It is not a reflection on your final grade for this element.

    All quizzes MUST be completed prior to you commencing your placement.

    The multiple choice questions in this course look at some common sense areas of employment and review some of your general knowledge as well as relate back to courses such as Management Principles (or equivalent).

    If you have any questions about the course or this workshop please do not hesitate to contact the course coordinator immediately.
