WBL8000 Workplace-based Learning Portfolio (FOART)

Units 1.0 (Education not elsewhere classi) Band 5

Synopsis

The course will focus on the development of a learning portfolio that will demonstrate the summation of the student's individual learning experiences to date, whether acquired through formal or informal means. Structured reflection will help students to identify and contextualize the skills, attributes, capabilities, and expertise gained through various work, life and study experiences. The student will, wherever possible, seek verification of claims, through certification, demonstration or other supporting evidence. Normally, there will be considerable negotiation between the student and the USQ Adviser in revising drafts to ensure that the final version of the portfolio will be of a high professional standard. If the course is completed successfully, the completed portfolio may be submitted as evidence for recognition of prior learning (RPL). This will incur the cost of a full unit, but any resultant block exemption credits granted will not incur further cost.
