Continuous evaluation will take place during the programme with a final assessment on completion. Following the final evaluation, each participant will receive a portfolio score, which will be retained and may be used for applying to LDAD. It will therefore not be necessary for the participant to have their portfolio assessed during the application process.
A TUS Certificate of Completion will be issued to eligible participants. Plus a portfolio score, valid for applying to LSAD.
