ABSTRACT
The main features of the modular course at Oxford Brookes, and the successes and failures of developing, students capabilities and transferable skills, the features of profiling and explain an effective way of developing skills. To integrate the profiling of student skills into a large modular course, emphasizing our approach to a 'capability curriculum' that is delivered through the methods used in teaching. It is useful to distinguish between profiling, a formative process which puts students at the centre of planning and monitoring their learning. Solutions to the problems of integrating profiling into the modular course has a significant change in the attitude of staff to skills they develop own confidence in integrating skills and profiling to the concerns of their discipline. Personal profiling offers a way of enabling students to consider systematically the choices they make in designing their course and to make an informed choice of the skills.
