The project report, draft publication and presentation of your work will be formulated using level 7 academic criteria and criticality, providing an evidence-based rationale for the project, demonstrating an appropriate method of implementation and evaluation. You’ll showcase your acquired level of advanced practice through the project, demonstrating that you have made the required professional transformation.
