1) Engage with their Personal Tutors during progress tutorials and reflect on the subject and transferable/ employability skills that they are developing, with the aid of feedback that they have received
2) Engage with Careers Network, attend a couple of Careers events during the year, reflect on their career options and develop a suitable CV.

Learning Outcomes By the end of the module, students should be able to:
  • Demonstrate a willingness and understanding of how to engage in reflective practice relating to their learning experiences
  • Articulate their plans and next steps in their career pathway
  • Develop a curriculum vitae that suitably demonstrates their achievements during their course
