  • Identifying and analysing scientific or technical problems
  • Using and maintaining scientific or technical equipment
  • Collecting and storing samples, data or other evidence
  • Undertaking and evaluating scientific or technical procedures
  • Describing workplace operations and equipment in scientific laboratories or technical facilities

Duration: 100 hours

Contents:
There are three PBL projects in this module

1. Identifying Technical Problems and Collecting Samples or Data: Investigating technical problems in the workplace; collecting and treating samples, data or other evidence.

2. Analytical Procedures: Using specialised technical equipment to analyse samples, data or other evidence; undertaking routine and advanced scientific or technical analyses.

3. Workplace Operations: Describing the operations and equipment of a laboratory or other technical environment.

Aims

  • Identify technical or scientific problems that occur in the workplace and demonstrate appropriate techniques for collecting and treating samples or data.
  • Demonstrate techniques used to analyse and solve technical problems.
  • Describe the operations of a scientific laboratory or other technical environment.

     What qualification will I achieve for completing this course?

    This is an individual module course. The individual module courses are 100 hour long usually and can be taken on their own or as part of a larger program of study.

    If you wish to take an individual module course as a stand alone course, you can elect to sit an optional exam at the end of it.

    If you successfully pass the exam and all assignments, you will receive a Statement of Attainment. You can take examinations at a time and location to suit you. If you enrol, you will be sent further information on how to arrange examinations at the end of the course.

    If you do not wish to take the exam, you will receive a Course Completion letter when you have passed all assignments.

    There is an assignment at the end of each lesson. So for example, if an individual module course contains ten lessons, you will need to complete ten assignments. Assignments can be sent to us via email, post or fax.

    Other qualifications, such as certificates, diplomas etc may require examinations to be taken as part of the overall assessment process.

    You can find further information on the examinations process by clicking on the “Enrolment” link above.
