Performance Feedback
During your course you will receive feedback about your performance and you will receive all results of exams and assignments as soon after completion as possible.
All results are provisional until they have been approved by the Results Approval Panel. The Results Approval Panel formally reviews the assessment Quality Assurance process relating to the provisional results and as appropriate approves provisional results and authorises the requests for certificates from QQI or other awarding bodies.
If the Results Approval Panel amends your result you will be notified in writing of the change.
When will I get my exam/test results?
While you are on the course you will receive your results and feedback on your exams as soon as possible after you complete them. Depending on the type of tests undertaken provisional results* are generally available within three weeks of the test being completed.
QA Process
All results are processed as part of an agreed Quality Assurance System. As part of this system checks on the results process and content must be undertaken before results can be approved.
