Candidates are required to submit a practical work-related assignment for each of the Diploma modules in the form of a portfolio report. Assignments may be submitted at a time that is most convenient to the candidates.
Assignments are assessed externally by the University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE). Each assignment is graded as Distinction, Pass or Fail, and candidates will be certificated for each module that is marked. Candidates aiming for the full Diploma have up to three years to complete successfully assignments for all four modules.
As part of the University of Cambridge, CIE has delivered quality and internationally recognised examinations and assessments since 1863. Each year, CIE receives millions of entries for a wide variety of subjects offered in over 150 countries.
