The Program is based on interactive e-learning, on and off-site academic support, and one residential week at the University of Kent Canterbury campus. The degree apprenticeship will be delivered using a blended learning approach. This will include directed self-learning via the universities e-learning platform, and face-to-face teaching close to workplaces.
The work of a professional economist typically involves:
- identifying an issue that affects their organization
- approaching it by analyzing data
- drawing on their knowledge of economic theory to interpret the data or make informed predictions
- communicating their findings with clarity to other economists and non-economists
