How to write and submit it
- Read the relevant study units and write answers in your own words rather than reproducing the study material.
- Do not copy another student’s responses; copied assignments may be rejected and disciplinary action may follow.
- Use full-size paper and leave 4 cm margins at the top, bottom and left.
- Clearly identify the question number and any subpart in each answer.
- Submit handwritten work either as scanned copies through the Regional Centre’s email or upload link, or as hard copies to your Regional Centre or Study Centre.
