ExpertTrack Courses

Welcome to this ExpertTrack course. This course forms part of the ExpertTrack series of courses.

Over the next number courses, you’ll explore core activities and have the opportunity to understand the various concepts involved in cyber investigations.

We expect this particular ExpertTrack course should take at least three weeks to complete. That said, everyone’s different, and you may find yourself working at a different pace, and that’s fine – one of the benefits of online learning is you can work at a pace that suits you.

However, we strongly encourage you to work through all aspects of the ExpertTrack. You need to mark over 90%+ of steps as complete across the entire ExpertTrack, attempt every test and assessment question, and score an average of at least 70% across all your assessments, to be eligible to gain certificates at both individual course level, and overall ExpertTrack level.

But there’s more to engagement than gaining certificates: we are confident that if you engage fully in all parts of this ExpertTrack you’ll likely maximise your learning, encounter other perspectives and ideas, and have a richer learning experience.

Full engagement includes:

● Working through the component courses in the suggested order – they’re arranged for a reason, and each course has been designed with a logical sequence. Jumping ahead without completing what came before may give you a disjointed learning experience.

● Reading, watching and listening across a variety of steps – some of which are text based, some with rich media.

● Sharing and discussing your learning with course peers – keep an eye out for the prompts which follow many steps, and get ready to spend a little more time on the Discussion steps.

● Developing your ideas through conversation – Educators will not be able to respond directly to comments in this ExpertTrack. We encourage learners to support one another, share personal experiences, and see new perspectives through the comments.

● Concept-checking and assessing your progress by completing Quiz steps – they’re just for practice, and the marks don’t count towards your certificate of achievement.

● Creating, producing and sharing your own work in the Peer Graded Assessments (you’ll see at least one of these across the ExpertTrack course).

● Exploring and assessing your peers’ work in the Peer Graded Assessments.

● Completing the Tests set in each course. This course will have three tests, one at the end of each week.

● When you’ve marked 90%+ of steps complete, attempted every test and assessment question, and gained an average of 70%+ across the Peer Graded Assessments and Tests, you will receive a certificate for each course within the ExpertTrack, as well as the overall ExpertTrack.
