Synopsis of Diploma – Postgraduate, Postgraduate Diploma and
Postgraduate Degree Regulation
Delegates studying courses of 5-9 days duration, equivalent to 30-54 Credit Hours (direct
lecturer contact), will, on successful assessment, lead to the Diploma – Postgraduate. This
represents a single credit at Postgraduate Level. While 6-day and 7-day courses also lead
to a Diploma – Postgraduate, they accumulate 36 and 42 Credit Hours, respectively.
Delegates and students who fail to gain the required level of pass, at Postgraduate Level will
receive a Certificate of Attendance and Participation. The Certificate of Attendance and
Participation will not count, for cumulative purpose, towards the Postgraduate Diploma.
Courses carry varying credit values; some being double credit, triple credit, quad credit and
5-credit, etc. These, therefore, accumulate to a Postgraduate Diploma. As is explained, later,
in this document, a Postgraduate Diploma is awarded to students and delegates who have
achieved the minimum of 360 Credit Hours, within the required level of attainment.
Credit Value and Credit Hours examples of Diploma – Postgraduate Courses are as

Because of the intensive nature of our courses and programmes, assessment will largely be
in-course, adopting differing formats. These assessment formats include, but not limited to,
in-class tests, assignments, end of course examinations. Based on these assessments,
successful candidates will receive the Diploma – Postgraduate, or Postgraduate Diploma, as
appropriate.
In the case of Diploma – Postgraduate, a minimum of 70% overall pass is expected. In order
to receive the Award of Postgraduate Diploma, candidate must have accumulated at least
the required minimum ‘credit-hours’, with a pass (of 70% and above) in at least 70% of the
courses taken.
Delegates and students who fail to achieve the requirement for Postgraduate Diploma, or
Diploma - Postgraduate - will be given support for 2 re-submissions for each course. Those
delegates who fail to achieve the assessment requirement for the Postgraduate Diploma or
Diploma - Postgraduate - on 2 resubmissions, or those who elect not to receive them, will be
awarded the Certificate of Attendance and Participation.

There are three delivery formats for Postgraduate Diploma Courses, as follows:
1. Intensive Full-time Mode (3 months);
2. Full-time Mode (6 month);
3. Video-Enhanced On-Line Mode.
Whichever study mode is selected, the aggregate of 360 Credit Hours must be achieved.
All short courses can accumulate to the required number of hours, for the Postgraduate
Diploma, over a six-year period from the first registration and applies to both general and
specialist groupings. In this regard, it is important to note that short courses vary in length,
the minimum being 5 days (Diploma – Postgraduate) – equivalent to 30 Credit Hours,
representing one credit. Twelve 5-day short courses, representing twelve credits or the
equivalent of 360 Credit Hours are, therefore, required for the Award of Postgraduate
Diploma.
A six-day course (Diploma – Postgraduate) is, therefore, equivalent to 36 hours Credit Hours,
representing one credit. Therefore, ten short courses, of this duration, equates to the required
360 Credit Hours, qualifying for the Award of Postgraduate Diploma. While double-credit
courses last between ten and fourteen days, triple-credit courses range from fifteen to
nineteen days. Similarly, quad-credit courses are from sixteen to nineteen days. On this
basis, the definitive calculation on the Award requirement is based on the number of hours
studied (aggregate credit-value), rather than merely the number of credits achieved. This
approach is particularly useful when a student or delegate studies a mixture of courses of
different credit-values.
For those delegates choosing the accumulative route, it is advisable that at least two credits
be attempted per year.
This will ensure that the required number of credit hours for the
Postgraduate diploma is achieved within the six-year time frame.
