Key to a student’s CAS program is personal engagement, choice and enjoyment of CAS experiences. Throughout the Diploma Program, students undertake a variety of CAS experiences, ideally on a weekly basis, for a minimum of 18 months. They must also undertake at least one CAS project with a minimum duration of one month. Students reflect on CAS experiences at significant moments throughout CAS and maintain a CAS portfolio. Using evidence from their CAS portfolio, students will demonstrate achievement of the seven CAS learning outcomes to the CAS coordinator’s satisfaction.

approach CAS with a proactive attitude
develop a clear understanding of CAS expectations and the purpose of CAS
