The College is fully committed to and fully implements the ECTS
grading system which enables the seamless transfer of student
results between institutions. The equivalence table is reproduced
below. Assessment for international students is normally conducted
by written assignments, project work and the completion of reflective
journals. Oral examinations may be prescribed where it is felt
that this is the fairest way of assessing performance and provisions
are also in place for written examinations. Assessment in most
cases will be in English.
