Assessment

The assessment is based on the learning outcomes for the course, the student's specification of the learning outcomes and the formative assessment made of the student during the clinical training period. Students' clinical training can only be assessed if their attendance is sufficiently high.

  • Less than 10% absence: The student can complete the clinical training course as normal.
  • 10-20% absence: If possible, the student can make up for the clinical training missed. This must be agreed with the clinical training supervisor and the supervisor at the university.
  • More than 20% absence: The student must retake the whole clinical training course.

Students are responsible for obtaining a copy of their assessment form from the supervisor. The form must be presented to the new supervisor in the next clinical training period.
