Why workshops are compulsory?
On-campus workshops form a vital part of the assessment and experiential learning process. You may feel a little apprehensive, or wonder why they are mandatory. Based on the feedback we have had from more than 90% of our students who have already attended these workshops, we can promise you that you will find them not only enriching, but, above all, fun!
The workshops must be attended in the same term that you are taking the subject/s, as they represent a vital component of the assessment process, unless extenuating circumstances prevent you from attending.
PLEASE NOTE: Failure to attend workshops will result in an inability to complete the co-requisite subject/s.
