What will I learn on this module?
This module is the first of five designed to enhance your development and in so doing ensure your progress towards the End Point Assessment (EPA) that is the culmination of your Senior People Professional Higher Apprenticeship.
Your learning will be designed around the 12 core duties that underpin the HA standard but will be tailored by you to reflect how knowledge, skills and behaviours are constructed and enacted within the context of your employment.
Your performance on this module (and hence the award of academic credits) will depend upon your engagement with the HA standards and your ability to demonstrate the progress of your learning and development towards the fulfillment of these standards. Completion of this module and progress to the next stage of your studies will depend upon:
• The production of a reflective log demonstrates your continuing commitment to your own continuing professional development and your engagement with programme learning materials.
• Satisfactory performance in the regular tripartite reviews convened between you, your coach and your workplace mentor.
• Satisfactory progress in the development of your portfolio of learning as evidenced by the production of a minimum number of draft portfolio evidence components as agreed during your tripartite reviews.
There will be curated technology enabled learning (TEL) to support remaining 20% off the job learning including Zoom/Teams/Blackboard collaborate in addition to the following to support your learning:
• Practice and Academic reading lists
• Video lecture content
• Professional memberships
How will I learn on this module?
You will develop through learning and development opportunities that arise in the context of your work supported by learning opportunities curated across the leadership curriculum. This unit has been designed to enable you to seek out and pursue such opportunities by providing a platform for knowledge exchange and skills development, which while tutor-led is focused upon the distinctive learning needs of Higher Apprentices. These opportunities will introduce you to the leading knowledge in the field, and current practices across sectors, and provide time and space to discuss with tutors and your peers how these relate to your own work-based experiences and practice. Fundamental British values, Prevent and Safeguarding is also embedded throughout the programme and assessed formatively at the 3-month checkpoint.
How will I be supported academically on this module?
You will be guided in your learning and development by a team of academics, practice tutors, workplace coaches, and, of course, your workplace mentor. You will work with these individuals to develop a portfolio of learning that demonstrates your appreciation of how the knowledge, skills and behaviours outlined in the HA standard allow you to perform the 12 core and 6 specialist duties that underpin HRM/D at this level.
What will I be expected to read on this module?
All modules at Northumbria include a range of reading materials that students are expected to engage with.

1. Satisfactory evidence of progress reviews to date, with records of these agreed by the workplace coach and mentor. (MLO1, 2, 3) (MLO1, 2, 3)
