During your time at University make time to assess how you are progressing towards your goals. Even if you only take a few hours each semester, it will help to keep you on target towards achieving your goals and getting the most out of your time here. Use the Learning Logs to record individual experiences, then at the end of each academic year pull together all your thoughts and reassess your progress.

Don't worry if your course doesn't include a placement year - just miss that section out. And if your course is shorter (for example if you are on a two year postgraduate course) just use the first and then the final year to chart your progress.
