The study of this course is supported by a range of learning activities designed to suit the different learning styles of students. These activities link directly to the study material and are designed to give students the opportunity to apply their understanding of the topics covered and provide contextualised examples for them to practice valuation calculations. This will lead to a deeper understanding of the issues that a valuer faces in professional work. It is strongly recommended that students undertake and complete the learning activites at the times that will be proposed. The learning activities do not form part of formal assessment; however, many of the activities will provide students with relevent preparation for the exam, which is the main end of course formal assessment.
