However, if you are just interested in completing one component, each can be taken as a standalone course. I want to gain the Special Purpose Award. Do I need to attend both components within a specific time frame? No; in fact, we recommend leaving a few month between completing each component as there is 8 weeks of self-directed learning and assessment work required after each course.
