This module explores how key skills can be integrated into the curriculum by looking at how it is done in one curriculum area - Hospitality - where some highly successful project work has been the vehicle for integrating key skills into the curriculum as part of the first year of the three-year Professional Chef's Diploma course.

This module will help you to:

• Ensure students are assessed for their key skill needs.
• Provide appropriate learning support for key skill development.
• Integrate key skills into delivery of the curriculum and all stages of assessment.
• Adopt a range of appropriate teaching methods for the application of key skills within student work.
• Monitor and review student progress in key skill development.
