Assessment

The programme is assessed entirely by coursework. There are no examinations.

Each unit includes an assignment question. So there are three potential assignment questions per module. Students choose one assignment question for each module and complete six in total. Students must pass all of their assignments to be awarded a Certificate in Educational Administration. All students must also take part in compulsory online tutorials which we deliver through our virtual classroom. There are sixteen tutorials that take place every three weeks or so according to the study schedule for the course.
