    Hi all,

    I'm looking for any insight or information about the PDSL in UL?

    Is this course a big advantage on a CV? What is the workload like? Etc..

    I'd greatly appreciate any thoughts, advice or information about this course.

    TIA

    I completed it a few years ago. It was during covid so everything was online. Not sure if thats still the case.

    I enjoyed it a lot. Some filler content but the good stuff was very good. Work load was manageable. Read an article, watch a pre recorded lecture and then attend a tutorial. (Online in our case).

    Some of the prerecorded lectures were just rehashed from the year before. Actually all of them were.

    Assignments were essays and presentations.

    Not sure if it helps when they look at application forms for AP positions, like you don't get scored higher than someone without it but it made me more confident for them.

    I would recommend it anyway
