BUGEN1525 Preparing for Professional Experience
In this course, students will start to consider and plan for their future area of employment in their chosen field. Students will explore the notion that being a professional is not only about being competent and skilful, but also acting ethically. They also learn important professional skills in communication and working as part of a team. Students will be introduced to reflective writing and be asked to complete a reflective journal. Students will also learn about the workplace learning requirements of their specific course of study. On completion, students will have a broad and coherent understanding of what it means to be a professional and will start to take responsibility for the transition to becoming a professional in their chosen field.
