COMPETENCY<br />

In each unit, Students will be issued a series of tasks designed <strong>to</strong> enable them <strong>to</strong> demonstrate their<br />

competence in the relevant subject area. Using the simulation scenario, the line manager will set<br />

tasks designed <strong>to</strong> enable the Student <strong>to</strong> demonstrate their underlying knowledge and<br />

understanding.<br />

Students will show and justify how, based on their own experience, knowledge given through the<br />

Centre of Excellence and understanding, they would respond <strong>to</strong> the challenge set. The method is<br />

enjoyable, practical and a genuine fast-track route <strong>to</strong> an internationally recognised qualification, or<br />

<strong>to</strong> build upon and create new skills, and challenging current practices.<br />

SUMMARY<br />

One of the difficulties many Students have at the<br />

start of their learning programmes is making the<br />

adjustment <strong>to</strong> a system where competence is<br />

assessed rather than knowledge being examined.<br />

For competence assessment, the Tu<strong>to</strong>r is trying <strong>to</strong><br />

find out not just how much the Student knows, but<br />

if the knowledge is sufficiently unders<strong>to</strong>od for it <strong>to</strong><br />

be applied in real life. <strong>You</strong>r Tu<strong>to</strong>r will use a<br />

combination of directive and supportive behaviour<br />

<strong>to</strong> guide you through this process.<br />

We very much hope that you will enjoy studying <strong>with</strong> LLA and always welcome feedback on ways<br />

that we can improve our standards of service. If at any time during your programme, you do not feel<br />

you are getting the support that you need, please do not hesitate <strong>to</strong> contact me directly.<br />
