At UKMC, our collaboration with University of Wolverhampton ensures that our course adhere strictly to the academic standards set by the university, especially for the Education Department. We advise potential students to acquaint themselves with the detailed entry requirements set by the university to ensure a smooth admissions process.
It is imperative for Business School aspirants to hold a GCSE mathematics certification, with a minimum grade of C or its equivalent. For a comprehensive breakdown of the entry prerequisites and other relevant details, please visit the Canterbury Christ Church University's dedicated page.
Your progress and achievement will be evaluated formally and informally at various points throughout the course, and assessed work will be graded in accordance with the level-appropriate quality standards and the specific module objectives.
ASSIGNMENTS
Your academic work will be formally assessed at the end of each module through assignment submissions. These are not just essay assignments, as we employ a variety of strategies to alter the manner in which you can display your learning, such as individual presentations, posters, e-portfolios, resource design, and case studies.
It's significant to recognize that the goal is to test your knowledge of business management. Before you complete the official assessments that contribute towards your final grade, the course provides you with opportunities for formative feedback that will enhance your progress and knowledge informally.
Each module has been meticulously designed to ensure that every aspect of your learning, from taught sessions and academic direction activities to work-based tasks and independent study, provides you with the content, arguments, and skills you need to meet the module objectives and demonstrate them in the assignment.
The type of assessment you receive is determined by the modules you take. This combination is designed to increase individual knowledge and skills in applying theory and best practices to real – world situations.
Each module concludes with a formal or ‘summative' assessment. Coursework evaluations such as reflections, essays, reports, portfolios, performance, presentations, and project reports are examples of assessment methodologies. Formal evaluation grades count toward your module grade. There are either one or two components to an assignment for each module (amounting to 100% of the whole module assignment).
You will receive written feedback on all formal evaluations and spoken input on any informal assessments. Feedback is provided to assist you in learning, and you are invited to share it with your module tutor.
