Students will be increasingly autonomous in their approach to their learning and will be expected to conduct independent research in order to gain a sophisticated understanding of their professional development.

Assessment will be conducted through development of a portfolio of work and research for the formative assessment units; and then for the final summative unit learners will submit a creative enterprise business plan, pitch their creative enterprise business plan and submit a final evaluation.
