Graduation Requirements 

A Specialist Certificate or a Graduate Certificate programme comprises 18 credits worth of modules or competency units. For Specialist Certificates, the modules or competency units are predominantly at the undergraduate level. For graduate certificates, the modules or competency units are predominantly at the postgraduate level. The typical workload consists of 2 to 6 modules or competency units taken over 1 trimester, though some programmes arrange for them to be taken over 2 or 3 trimesters. Each programme allows learners to develop a new skill to perform a new job function recognised and valued by the relevant industries.

To be awarded a Specialist Certificate or a Graduate Certificate, the learner must:

1. Complete all 18 credits specified for the certificate programme; and
2. Attain a minimum Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 2.00 at the end of the final trimester of study.

Learners who closely follow the recommended academic workload per trimester should be able to complete the Graduate Certificate requirements over the recommended duration of their candidature.

Learners who exceed their recommended duration of study may be granted an additional period equivalent to the recommended duration of the programme to complete it.

Learners are encouraged to approach their instructors should they face any issues in their studies.
