This approach combines face-to-face teaching, laboratory workshops, reflective practice and formal assessment. The experiential learning element of the courses focus on the student’s workplace and specific areas of project work they are undertaking with regard to meeting key attributes required of a professionally recognised Civil Engineer. Students will work towards the end point assessment for this Degree Apprenticeship, which will provide Incorporated Engineer (IEng) status with the CIBSE via professional review. Employers also engage with professional development to help the student progress through their training.
