Approach

Classroom activities focus on experiential learning and active participation, using a variety of methodologies. A range of interactive instructional strategies such as group work, role-plays, simulations , and case studies are used during the contact session.

Where possible, additional information will be provided to the learners for self- study and/or additional reading purposes on operating a business online.

The content is facilitated with the aid of a learner guide and a facilitator guide. Media and training aids, such as data projection, flipcharts, white board, videos. To enhance learning, online links will be shared with learners so that they can physically apply the knowledge gained in the contact sessions. A key resource in this regard will be access to reliable internet connection for the learner to operate within an online ecosystem. Contact hours to facilitate the content and intent of the unit standards comprise of a minimum of 40 hours. This makes provision for experiential learning, formative assessments and coaching in preparation for the final website assessment. The training is divided into modules to ensure all learning outcomes are covered and to ensure that learning is conducted cumulatively based on the principle of building from the known to the unknown.
