Tutorial dates are not repeated in this public schedule. They are issued through My World and course communications so learners use the platform, event instructions and reminders provided.
The curriculum moves from principle to practice, helping learners connect values, behaviour, influence and responsibility through structured online learning, reflection and tutorial engagement.
This module helps learners consider whether leadership is relevant to them, even where they do not hold a formal role or title. It introduces leadership as influence, responsibility and conduct, encouraging learners to reflect on their own values and the effect their choices can have on others.
This module introduces the idea that each learner has one life, one world and one opportunity to decide how they will act within it. It encourages early reflection on personal responsibility, values-led behaviour and the possibility of beginning a structured journey towards greater calibre and integrity.
This introductory pathway provides a statement of recognition for the learner's calibre journey. It does not award Calibre Credits™.

Basal learners receive a Statement of Aspiration. It records that the learner has begun their IOWL journey and aspires to adhere to the Principles and Exemplars of Positive Value Leadership. This is an introductory recognition document and does not award Calibre Credits.

IOWL Positive Value Leadership courses are delivered online as a structured, personal journey of self-propelled learning, reflection and transformation. The course is not taught entirely through live tutorials.
Learners work through guided Smartboard learning, reflective activities, coursework and, where applicable, assessment. The Smartboard introduces the course concepts, frameworks and activities that each learner is expected to study, consider and apply to their own life, leadership and professional practice.
Live, interactive virtual tutorials support and deepen this personal learning journey. They provide opportunities to explore key ideas, discuss experiences, ask questions, test understanding and reflect with tutors and other learners. Tutorials reinforce the learning process, but they do not replace the Smartboard learning, personal reflection or coursework.
Positive Value Leadership is designed to be transformative, not merely informational. Transformation develops over time through honest reflection, purposeful action and the practical application of learning. It cannot be achieved simply by attending tutorials or passively receiving information.
Before and during the course, learners receive induction, clear instructions, important dates, advance guidance and reminders. Each learner is then expected to familiarise themselves with the platform, follow the instructions provided, manage their own progress and navigate to the appropriate learning activities and live events.
This approach reflects the principle of “Integrous Agency” at the heart of Positive Value Leadership: taking personal responsibility for one’s own development, acting purposefully and approaching the course with a “can-do” attitude and, ideally, an “it’s done” attitude.
