To facilitate the (adult) working cohort of students, we use a combination of classroom-based teaching along with online learning resources.

This course is primarily assessed through continuous assessment. The forms of assessments may include:

• Projects
• Business reports
• Case studies
• Role-plays and presentations undertaken on an individual or group basis.

There will also be one end of year examination for the module Financial & Economic Environment.

This course will be delivered at the GMIT Mayo campus over two-days per month from September 2016 to May 2017.
