How you will learn

Teaching

Learning takes place through a combination of timetabled learning and independent study.

You can view more information about how each module is taught within our 'What you will study' section.

Seminars and workshops enable you to discuss and develop your understanding of topics covered in lectures in smaller groups. You will also be able to meet your personal tutor. Timetabled learning may fall between 9am and 9pm depending on your courses and tutorials.

Class sizes

Lectures are usually attended by larger groups and seminars/tutorials by smaller groups. This can vary more widely for modules that are shared between degrees.

Apprentices also take part in shared/collaborative modules with students on the built environment course, providing a perfect opportunity to develop teamworking skills. Workshop and lab sessions enable you to work in smaller groups of learners.

Independent learning

Outside of timetabled sessions, you are also expected to dedicate time to study. This may involve further reading and research, preparing coursework and presentations, and getting ready for tests and exams. Our facilities are designed to support you in these activities.

You can use Stockwell Street Library and online resources to support further reading and research.

In addition to the training plan agreed with your employer, it is possible you may also:

  • Attend guest lectures from industry experts
  • Take part in employability and enterprise workshops
  • Join student societies.

Overall workload

You will discuss your workload with your employer before you begin your training plan. This will include protected ‘off-the-job’ training hours. These will form part of your normal working week, and you will be paid your normal working rate for them. Find out more.

Assessment

You can view how each module is assessed within our 'What you will study' section.

Each course has formal assessments which count towards your grade. Some courses may also include 'practice' assignments, which help you monitor progress and do not count towards your final grade.

Feedback summary

We aim to give feedback on assignments within 15 working days.

Dates and timetables

Full teaching timetables are not usually available until term has started. For any queries, email us at apprenticeships@gre.ac.uk
