I absolutely loved this course
I absolutely loved this course - love the content, love the structure, our tutor was amazing and I found it really fascinating. Only meeting once a month makes it very accessible to people who work full time too. There’s a great mix of theory learning and putting those theories into practice in class as well. However, I have to say it’s downfall was not being informed of a rather large piece of work until over midway through the course (Unit 6 coursework) - had this been communicated to us from the beginning it would have been fine, but not even the tutor knew we had to do this until we told her and it was rather a shock to be given 11-12 extra bits of homework when you’re trying to prepare for your case studies AND complete the practice hours on top of the journals and essays you also have to do. Another thing that I felt was quite misleading was the course advertising that it is 8hrs of study a week - it absolutely is not, especially towards the end of the course. I appreciate everybody learns at different rates but I ended up having to take annual leave from work twice to ensure I got my work/practice hours completed in time (obviously this was my choice but I felt it was necessary). I just think it should be advertised at 16hrs a week (which is still part time). Despite all that, I would absolutely recommend this course to others, (just pre-warn them about the hidden unit of work and prepare for the extra homework hours towards the end)! Would definitely do another course with chrysalis in the future too.
