What is self-directed learning?
Self directed learning is learning that requires you to assume personal responsibility for your learning and where you spend a considerable time learning at your own initiative. Although this programme provides a formalised structure and breakdown of what needs to be completed on a month by month basis – this is only a suggested timetable to allow you the best chance to complete all elements in the allotted timeframe for the programme. Although the Faculty Coach-Mentors will encourage you to adhere to this timeframe their role is not to continually remind you of what needs to be completed by when. You will need to essentially manage your own learning throughout the programme.
