What the college says

These are academically demanding and applied courses suiting analytical students where a strong science understanding is advantageous. You should be a committed and independent learner with the personal management skills to meet independent study and coursework deadlines. Learning and assessment is varied to represent workplace and university style demands, with some external examination and coursework assessment. Units 1, 2, & 3 (depending on the course taken) are externally assessed by an exam. All other units are assessed by coursework which may include written reports, academic posters, practical coaching, video or live presentations. Because the course is modular, you will study one unit at a time and when it is complete, you focus solely on the next. This allows you to intensely focus your attention and maximise your grades each unit. You will receive excellent staff guidance to enable you to achieve excellent results, while enriching your study skills and personal development. With the right attitude and effort, students gain above national average course results.
