Now that you have reached the end of this course, complete the following reflection activity to check your progress against the key learning points.

Activity 8: Reflection

Allow around 15 minutes for this activity.

This activity will help you to:

  • Summarise your learning
  • Reflect on the extent to which you have achieved key learning points
  • Think about what you still need to do to fully achieve the key learning points

Part A:

In the table below, indicate whether you feel very confident (3), confident (2) or not so confident (1) about having achieved each of the key learning points for this course.
