Sample projects

As further guidance on the module, we provide four sample projects. The worked solutions given for Projects SB01,L6, L3, L1 and L2 are intended to demonstrate the standard required for a good pass. They are not perfect solutions and other approaches will be acceptable.

The first two of these projects, Projects L6 and L3, are previous examination assignments which have been worked through by the examiners to illustrate what is required of students.

Project L1 is a little shorter than a full examination assessment, and Project L2 is shorter and less complex than the examination will be.  However, both are useful examples of the techniques and outputs required for this course.

Please note that all the projects are intended to show the broad scope of this course.  You will work on the audit trail and communications aspects, in particular, during the first day of the course.
