Kaiako-led and other planned learning activities contribute to the learning in noho wānanga, online and face to face and those undertaken in self-directed learning time by tauira.
Total hours = 700 hours
Progression in learning and assessment is incremental, with the assessments and practical experiences becoming more challenging. Tauira need to pass the 7 modules in this programme to gain this Level 3, Certificate in Health and Wellbeing (Healthcare Assistance Strand) qualification.
The achievement-based assessment mode for this programme will incorporate written, tuakana-teina sharing and group discussions, posters, presentations, demonstrations, reports, case studies, and portfolio. Theory and evidence-based practise support the work-based placement components which are competency based.
A variety of teaching and learning methods will be employed throughout the programme appropriate to meeting the learning outcomes of modules, and to optimise the learning of tauira. Teaching and learning methods will include:
- Accessing online sessions, tutorials, and assessment and evaluation activities
- Participating in ‘intensive’ learning sessions that require them to be away from home the least amount of time possible
- Engaging in a cultural and nursing mentorship within their community
- Practise experience within their local area when possible
