How does it work?
UaS is a highly interactive online course facilitated by our team of Student Expertience Team Tutors. By the end of UaS, you will have identified your key skills and experiences and learned how to articulate and evidence these using CAR statements.
UaS uses a combination of Moodle and an interactive online learning platform called 'Rise 360', which contains engaging interactive content, video and knowledge checks along the way.
At the end of each unit you will be asked to return to the Moodle to complete the unit's activities. These activities are important as they test the learning that you have gained through each of the units and will help you build your CAR statements. You will receive feedback on each piece of work you submit either within the Moodle or by email and have the oppotunity to meet with one of the tutors for 1:1 feedback.
On completion of this course you will receive a UaS digital badge and certificate and it will be added to your HEAR transcript.
