How Manchester Metropolitan University used Credit Bearing Programmes

Using their Career Centre to deliver programmes at scale, Manchester Metropolitan University trialled a Credit Bearing Programme for final year students, with 10% of their final year marks attributed to undertaking the programmes.

The pilot was trialled for the Faculty of Business & Law. The two final year programmes were Global Strategy and Corporate Reporting and consisted of the following:

  • 4 tasks and 23 actions to complete
  • Programme content included tests, career assessments, assessment centre tool and specific videos/e-Learning

The take-up was slow initially, however student engagement increased significantly towards the end of the academic year.

Watch David Ebden, Information Manager at Manchester Metropolitan University, talk about this at our annual Academic Client Conference:

Key Outcomes

  • 82% of the cohort completed the programme
  • 25,000 activities were undertaken within 1 week
