How does assessment work and what are the approval criteria?
The programme combines continuous evaluation per module (mandatory practical exercises for each of the 8 modules) and a comprehensive final assessment covering conceptual understanding and practical application. To pass and receive certification, participants must achieve a minimum of 75% on the final assessment and at least 75% attendance in live sessions.

How do the post-certification supervised application sessions work?

These sessions are scheduled according to the participant's availability across the 6 months following completion and do not form part of the 36-hour certified workload.
