• an annotated job description;
• a portfolio of learning experience supported by evidence

(b) Reflective essay

A reflective essay based upon the experience of compiling the portfolio element, analysing, synthesising and critically evaluating their own learning experiences. Reflection will also identify strategies for increasing the impact of this learning on their own practice and that of others in the workplace.
