Toteutuksen valinnaiset suoritustavat
Laurean tutkintosäännön mukaisesti ”Kaikilla opiskelijoilla on oikeus osaamisensa näyttämiseen. Aloitteen hankitun osaamisen tunnistamisesta ja tunnustamisesta tekee opiskelija. Osaamisen tunnistaa ja tunnustaa opinnosta vastaava opettaja tai muu tehtävään nimetty henkilö. Arvioinnissa noudatetaan samaa arviointikriteeristöä ja pääsääntöisesti samaa arviointiasteikkoa kuin vastaavalla opintojaksolla tai -kokonaisuudella. Opiskelijalla on oikeus hakea osaamisen tunnustamista riippumatta siitä, missä, miten ja milloin osaaminen on hankittu. Opiskelija voi hakea myös työssä hankittavan osaamisen tunnistamista osaksi tutkintoa (työn opinnollistaminen). ... Opiskelija vastaa osaamisen osoittamisesta, todistamisesta ja riittävien tietojen toimittamisesta. Osaamisen arvioivat opiskelija ja näytön vastaanottava ohjaaja yhdessä. ”
