ENGAGING WITH YOUR PERSONAL LEARNING RECORD (PLR) PAPERWORK

At the beginning of the course, you will be supported in setting personal learning aims, which will guide your development over the duration of the programme. Your tutor will assess your progress at key points—at the start, mid-point, and conclusion of the course—providing written feedback to help document your learning and achievements. - Course level and content
