The Forward Learning Process
One loop, repeated until mastery.
01
Start your course
Open a course from the Term Learning Plan agreed with your Programme Mentor. Take the pre-assessment to find out what you already know.
02
Learn and practise
Study at your own pace with resources open at all hours. Course Instructor support and cohort sessions for practical work. Practice assessments check your readiness.
03
Demonstrate mastery
Sit the proctored objective assessment on demand, or submit the performance assessment, marked by an evaluator who did not teach you.
Mastery demonstrated
Competence units awarded. The next course on the plan begins.
Mastery not yet demonstrated
Remediate with the Instructor. Reattempt after the interval, guided remediation, then a fresh attempt.
Mastery not yet demonstrated costs a remediation cycle. It never costs a term and never costs a year.
Built for
- Working adults who study around a job
- Learners with prior mastery, who can challenge what they already know
- The Global Online Campus, in any time zone
Students may transfer between pathways once a year. Everything carries, because the curriculum is identical.
