Study time, Coaching and Tutor Support
While you study in your own way and at your own pace, we’ll keep in regular contact to ensure that you have all the advice and support you need. For most participants, this flexible Programme will include:
A 1 hour on-line Programme Induction session to give an overview of Programme content, your e-learning platform and to discuss your personal goals.
A 1 hour coaching and planning session within 2-3 weeks of your initial session, to discuss your chosen change initiative and your action plan.
A total of 2 hours on-line individual coaching with your tutor.
A total of total of 4 hours one-to-one tuition mentoring sessions agreed and booked throughout your Programme.
A final 1 hour mentoring session before we complete your assessment, towards the end of your Programme
We advise a minimum of circa 40 hours personal e-learning study including utilising the Programme Resources and completing your personal Learning Log, Reflection Notes, Action Plan and responding to your on-line tutor support and assessment.
The Themed Forum topics also form part of your overall assessment and are great for sharing ideas and experiences with other on Fresh Thinking Labs.
Optional monthly webinars and workshops on key topics are available and we encourage you to take part in these as opportunities for shared learning!
