Assessment method:
Report and research notes.
Timeline:
Set at review 1, sent for submission at FAP 1.
Project 1
Learners to identify minimum of three opportunities for personal
and professional development:
Personal
Something that will help them outside of work too, such as improving
communication or presentation skills.
Role-specific
Ideally something linked to their job or person specification. Something that will
be of benefit in the particular role/organisation theyre currently based.
Future
This is a bit more wide-ranging. For this the learner needs to identify what skills
may be useful for future roles (Ill come back to this one).
Project 1
The report:
Their report needs them to discuss the benefits of each of the
opportunities they have identified and explain how they will help them
in the future.
Regarding the future development point: theyll need to make
reference to the wider world of marketing and identify what the current
trends are within the industry, for example live streaming. The purpose
of this is to encourage the learner to develop new skills rather than
simply focus on being good at the job theyre currently doing. Emphasis
with this is on being proactive and not being caught out by new
developments (however there are a lot of false dawns in the industry
too).
Project 1
The report:
Their report needs them to discuss the benefits of each of the
opportunities they have identified and explain how they will help them
in the future. Big emphasis on why something has been chosen.
They need to do this analysis of each of the development points
chosen.

Project 1
To complete, learners will submit a detailed report along with
copies of any research notes.
Project 2
Learning outcome 2:
The learner will understand how people learn.
Learning outcome 3:
The learner will be able to produce personal and professional
development plans.
Assessment method:
Report, evidence of self-audit, dream job specification, personal
development plan, and progress diary.
Project 2
Timeline:
Set at review 2, reviewed at FAP 2, sent for submission at review 3.
Project 2
The second project is the biggest of the three and will likely take
up the most time.
Assessment method:
Presentation and evidence
Timeline:
Set at review 3, reviewed at FAP 3, presented at review 4.
Project 3
The final project tasks learners with producing a giving a
presentation in which they explore what they have learned
throughout the entire process.
This is where the reflective diary comes into play: they need to
evaluate their own progress against the goals they set.
Project 3
Presentation must include:
Exploration of what the learner has discovered throughout the projects.
Analysis of reflective diary, showing the progress made between the
updates.
If any progress wasnt made then this needs to be mentioned. Learners
can base the discussion around the barriers they faced and suggest what
they can do to overcome them.
The benefits of reflective practice.
Next development steps.
These dont need to be documented or formally planned, learners just need to show
that theyve considered what their next steps will be based on the progress so far.
Project 3
Presentation:
As a minimum this presentation can be between the learner and the
assessor.
If theyre comfortable, however, it would be nice to invite managers and
potentially peers too. It should be a celebration of what the learner has
achieved throughout the process.
A witness statement is available for assessors to sign as evidence of
the presentation taking place.
Supporting materials
Available for assessors and learners:
Template for personal development plan.
Template for SWOT analysis.
Completed witness statement.
Report template.
