The AWSOME course maximises the opportunity for candidates to practice SAQ technique and receive feedback on their efforts. Knowledge components of the course have been selected to aid targeted revision in the run up to the examination rather than aiming to cover the whole syllabus. The format of each course component is as follows:
- Lecture - Lectures on carefully selected aspects of the syllabus in which candidates often perform poorly.
- Feedback - Individually tailored feedback on your SAQ performance will be delivered in a 1:2 examiner:candidate ratio.
- Practice - Selected SAQs on topics which RCOA examination reports suggest are consistently poorly answered.
- Tutorial - Develop a model answer in small groups under the guidance of an examiner.
- Examination - Practice the new techniques you have learnt with an examination to conclude each day.
