# The CAS Interviews

## Interview One

This interview is to **check that you have started** your CAS experiences, you are reflecting/evidencing and you understand the programme. 

{% hint style="info" %}
You have **a lot of choice** in your CAS programme, but with that comes a lot of responsibility to actually do something! 
{% endhint %}

## Interview Two

Normally held towards the end of Year 1 of the DP. 

This interview **helps reflection** and **checks progress** towards meeting all of the requirements and [learning outcomes](https://guide.fariaedu.com/cas/assessment). 

{% hint style="warning" %}
Again, you have both freedom and responsibility. You are responsible for meeting the requirements of CAS; your CAS advisor or coordinator is there to guide and support you through the process.
{% endhint %}

## Interview Three

This normally happens towards the end of the programme. This is a chance to **think back on what you have achieved** and to **check that you have finished**. It should almost be a chance to **celebrate** a job well done. 

{% hint style="danger" %}
If everything has gone well this is a real celebration! If you have not completed the requirements then your CAS coordinator may give you very specific things you need to do **now** if you want to gain your diploma.  
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Although there is an **expectation of three formal CAS interviews** if you have any questions or issues with your CAS experiences, programme or project you should **seek help from your CAS coordinator**.
