3. Satisfactory completion of a unit in the VCE & VCE-VM

Students must demonstrate satisfactory achievement for all the learning outcomes for a unit in accordance with the specifications set out in the Study Design for the unit of study. This will be recorded as a Satisfactory (S). If a student does not satisfactorily achieve one or more of the learning outcomes for a unit, or the work submitted is deemed not to be that of the student, then the student will not be awarded satisfactory completion of that unit. This will be recorded as a Not Satisfactory (N). Students undertake a range of assessment tasks to demonstrate their understanding of each learning outcome.
