• Deal with complex issues both systematically
and creatively, make sound judgements in the
absence of complete data, and communicate
their conclusions clearly to specialist and
non-specialist audiences.

• Demonstrate self-direction and originality
in tackling and solving problems, and act
autonomously in planning and implementing
tasks at a professional or equivalent level.

• Continue to advance their knowledge and
understanding, and to develop new skills to a
high level.

And holders will have:

• The qualities and transferable skills necessary
for employment requiring:

• the exercise of initiative and personal
responsibility

• decision-making in complex and
unpredictable situations

The aims and learning outcomes above are for the

equally at all stages others will only be achieved by
progressing through all stages of the programme.
