You need to cover the following LO (LEARNING OUT COMES) for ISYS unit

You need to write an essay type of document covering LO 4 and LO 5

You will need to identify and flag LO met at the end of each paragraph
You will also need to map this in your mapping document and send it to your assessor to show where in your essay (page number and paragraph number) you have met these LOs

The following LO has not been covered in your ICAS unit which now needs to be covered for conversion into ISYS unit
