  • Ensuring you fully commit to the required number of hours and planning enough time for the reading and supplemental study of core texts/materials and completion of final assignment.

  • Assess your progress and provide support to help you achieve your goals.
  • Provide relevant and support the assignment.
  • Provide timely feedback on a maximum of one draft for each assignment within agreed timescales.
