Assessment comments

The program, delivered at the beginning of the course, will include information about minimum contents, delivery dates, dates multiple choice tests, lessons, partial deliveries and everything needed to study the subject.

In order to promote continuous assessment, attendance will be controlled and the final mark will depend on the attitude and the work of the student. Students must pass theoretical and practical tests (Objective test, Multiple-choice questions tests), the workshop and case study. This will confirm if the student assimilated the concepts, the competences, and methods of work of the subject.

Students who failed in January will be able to pass the subject in the second opportunity (July) but if they obtain a "NO PRESENTADO" (absent from assessment), they won't have a second chance.

If students do not pass every part of the subject (Objective test, Multiple-choice questions tests, Workshop and Case study), even if they fail, or the minimum attendance, will obtain a "NO PRESENTADO" (absent from assessment) (in each opportunity)
