Further details relating to assessment
The progress journal is expected to form the basis of discussion in the weekly meetings with Academic Advisors. Academic Advisors will, in many instances, be able to provide the help and guidance required to address areas of concern, through the weekly meetings. Where issues arise which cannot be addressed in this way, the Academic Advisor will put the student in touch with appropriate support.
