The GAP Compass self-assessment and suite of learning experiences is the flagship initiative and supports a successful student transition through UCC. The values identified for inclusion in the GAP include: Respect; Ambition; Compassion; Resilience; Integrity. The attributes selected were: Creators Evaluators and Communicators of Knowledge; Independent and Creative Thinkers; Digitally Fluent ; Socially Responsible ; and Effective Global Citizens who Recognise and Challenge Inequality. Our goal is to foster the development of these crucial characteristics during our students’ time with us. This goal requires a valid and reliable means of assessing each value and attribute.
