Our results

Our latest results speak for themselves…..

June 2010

Our Advanced Certificate students who started with us in autumn 2009 studying both online and face to face achieved a 100% pass rate in the latest assignment (PR planning). 22% achieved a distinction and 30% a merit.

The Advanced Certificate who started with us earlier this year (2010) also achieved great results in the critical reasoning test – a more academic test around PR theory. Out of 48 students, one quarter (25%) were awarded a distinction and a huge 60% got a merit grade.

Diploma students have done equally well 52% of those who took their critical reasoning test this year achieving a merit or above and 70% of those who started in the Autumn of 2009 and have just had the results of their planning assignment being award a merit or distinction.

Internal Communication Certificate students achieved a 98% pass rate which included 65% being awarded a merit.

March 2010

We were delighted to have a 100% pass rate for those internal communication certificate students who studied with us during Autumn 2009. 61% achieved a merit or above.

Students who joined us in Autumn 2009 to study either the Advanced Certificate or the Diploma in PR, completed their first assignment early in the new year – the critical reasoning test. There was a 100% pass rate for Advanced Certificate students studying both online and face to face. 62.5% achieved a merit or above. Diploma students (online and face to face) did really well too – 19.5 % achieved a distinction and 41% a merit. There were just three fails. Students now go on to complete a planning assignment and then a project on a subject of their choice.

At the March 2009 exam board, our results were confirmed as:

Our online diploma students achieved a pass rate of 91% for their critical reasoning test – the first assignment of the course.
Our online and face to face diploma groups combined have achieved a pass rate of 98% for their PR plans, the second assignment of the course.
Advanced Certificate students have also done exceptionally well, our January 2009 start group achieved a pass rate of more than 97%.
