The module will explore work-based learning opportunities together with student occupational and professional concepts, principles and techniques, including reflective practice and using established analytical tools.

There will be an emphasis on setting workplace learning objectives, reflective practice and the use of learning agreements. Student development will normally be supported in the workplace through supervision arrangements.
