Earning Criteria

• Demonstrate active course participation and content engagement by responding to ten modular discussion forum activities throughout the course. This task requires a reflection on learning in each module, and the application of this learning to a scenario to demonstrate understanding and skill application. This is also an opportunity to contribute to the collaborative learning environment.
• Successfully complete the assessment ‘Policy Brief’; a 1000-word brief that critically analyses the opportunities to change people’s behaviour with regard to a public policy issue. The writing must be structured as a response to a specific audience, and recommendations around programs or policies to engage people and change their behaviour with regard to the issue need to be made.
• Successfully complete the assessment ‘Briefing Document’; a 1000-word document describing a current public policy challenge from a behavioural perspective, including stakeholder and influence mapping, behaviour identification and prioritisation.
• Successfully complete the assessment ‘Intervention Proposal’; a 1000-word proposal for a behaviour change solution to the public policy challenge based on what is known about the problem, the priority behaviour and the target audience. This must also include a framework to measure the impact of the proposed intervention.
