Modules
Modules are described as units of learning, with specific learning outcomes. Credits are awarded for the young people’s attendance of a module/s. Since the launch of the Torfaen Children’s University in May 2005, over 300 modules have been registered. Your organisation may be able to offer activities that qualify as CU modules, but remember, modules need to take place out of school hours to qualify.
