Assessment method

Formative assessment (this does not count towards your final grade): During the course you will be invited to submit two case studies for formative assessment at the end of trimesters 1 and 2. These case studies will be reviewed with you during a progress meeting. The aim of these meetings is to support you build to your record of clinical competence by providing feedback on the case studies and helping you monitor your development of competencies. In addition to the formal review meetings with the course director formative feedback during the course will also be provided on case presentations by peers and Course Director. Pre-submission review of Portfolio: The Course Director will provide a review of the portfolio and a mock viva at the end of trimester three. In this process you can re-submit the two case reports that were discussed at the earlier progress reviews, and we will assess the changes you have made. The case logs and supervision logs will be reviewed, and all this information will be used as the basis for a Mock Viva with the Course Director. Mock Viva: Prior to the Viva Voce oral examination, you will be offered an opportunity to participate in a Mock viva with the Course Director. This will provide you with experience of the style and demands of the final viva voce examination in a supportive environment. Summative assessment: The summative assessment will formally evaluate your competencies in the practice of Clinical neuropsychology. To successfully complete the PGCert submission and a pass grade on all following components is required: Clinical Supervision Log. Clinical Case Log. Six case reports. Viva Voce examination. All the relevant documentation for these logs is provided once enrolled on the course.
