Getting started

How the course works

• The course is divided into two weeks.
• Each week there will be two sections, with a range of different tasks for you to complete at your own pace.
• The course is not facilitated, but is designed to support peer learning through online discussions.
• There will be a range of quizzes, reading sections, videos, and chances for you to discuss questions with other learners; this can be a great way of getting different viewpoints and ideas, so do use these chances to network with your peers and share your ideas!
• The course culminates in a graded assignment. You can attempt this assignment as many times as necessary to achieve a passing score of 70% or higher and earn your “Certificate of Achievement”. You will also need to complete 90% of the steps in the course; to do this, make sure you click the Mark as complete button at the bottom of each step.

Tell us about you

Please answer this short course introduction survey about your current experience, knowledge and interests related to the topics covered in this course. The survey will take less than 5 minutes to complete.

Your response will also help us to gain valuable insights directly from learners. We use these insights to help us understand a little more about our learners and what you want from the course. This helps us create a more effective and enriching learning experience. There are a couple more (even shorter) surveys in the course too.
