Program Assessment

Students will be assessed on an ongoing mode through the learning progress from the learning contents. The Continuous Assessment which may be incorporated in the learning contents will be based on Self – Assessment methods.

Students may be required to submit their self-assessment (i.e., assignments, quizzes or tests, and presentation papers) depending on the respective courses by ATTACHMENT through their LOG-IN.

Student's Performance will be assessed through Continuous Assessment.

Continuous Assessment

Comprises various methods such as assignments, quizzes/tests, and presentation papers.

Assessment is a systematic process of gathering, interpreting, and acting upon data related to student learning and experience for the purpose of developing a deep understanding of what students know, understand, and can do with their knowledge as a result of their educational experience: the process culminates when assessment results are used to improve subsequent learning.

Huba and Freed, 2000

Scheduling of Assessment will be administered at the end of each course.

Final Assessment Timetable (Certain courses may not have final assessment) – Students upon completion of each course will LOG-IN to check on the date of Final Assessment based on INTAKE period. Final Assessment will be administered in accordance with INTAKE period.

NO REPLACEMENT

No replacement and no cancellation of the final assessment date will be granted in the same INTAKE period. A strong reminder to students to check-in for their assessment according to their INTAKE period. Failure to sit on the scheduled date may defer your graduation as you may need to wait for final assessment in the next INTAKE period.

INTAKE

  1. January
  2. May
  3. September

FINAL ASSESSMENT

  1. April Assessment
  2. August Assessment
  3. December Assessment

Students who failed to sit for their log-in date for the final assessment due to their carelessness and negligence will not be entertained. Students will wait for the next INTAKE period to LOG-IN for the final assessment.

Failure to LOG-IN for Final Assessment

Students are required to sit for the online final assessment in the next available INTAKE period.

Students who failed to LOG-IN to complete on their final assessment without official permission from the Examination Unit at the Administrative Office is deemed to have failed the final assessment.

Students who did not LOG-IN to complete on their final assessment without any valid reason will be given a “TL” in the transcript. “TL” is equivalent to a failed grade.

REFERRAL is an assessment offered to the students who has missed the final assessment for acceptable reasons. For example, medical reason where learner must submit the medical certificates to Examination Unit within five (5) working days after the actual assessment date.

Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)

Assessment is an on-going process that helps to track and monitor the learning progress of the students and to measure achievements of the learning outcomes. The assessment methods adopted within the courses will be sufficiently varied to enable the student to develop the full range of knowledge and competencies.

The summative assessments (e.g. tests, quizzes, assignments, case studies, project and other course components) and the final assessment shall serve as evaluation tools to gauge the student’s performance and the marks will be recorded at all stages. Students are required to take all of the different assessment components in order to pass the course.

Student's Assessment Performance

The student’s performance is determined at the end of each course by the Point System. The total Points of all the courses in the program will be calculated to determine the Point Average.

The calculation is based on the following formula:

NOTE:

A student shall be on probation pass when obtaining a CGPA of 2.00 but not less than 1.67 (1.67 ≤ CGPA < 2.00) provided that the student did not get an ‘F’ grade in more than two (2) core courses.

* Maximum learning duration for a program is Five (5) years unless otherwise approve by the University.

The grade obtained for each course shall be based on the overall assessment performance comprising of the summative (e.g., tests, quizzes, assignments, case studies, project, and other course components) and formative final assessments for the course.

The lowest grade for a clear pass shall be “C” with a quality point equivalent to 2.00. A student who obtains a “CONDITIONAL PASS” grade is required to re-sit for the course. A student who obtains a “FAIL” grade is required to repeat the course.

The assessment performance of the student for the course is reflected by the grade received. The standing of the grade and point received is as shown in the table above with indication as FAILURE, CONDITIONAL STANDING, GOOD to EXCELLENT STANDING.

Grading System – Status Definition

Appeal for Assessment Grade Recheck

The appeal to recheck the final assessment answer script for any course must be done only in the first week of getting your result. Any change in the course grade as endorsed by the University is final. A payment of RM100.00 per course shall be imposed for the recheck.

* Only students with a Failed Grade Standing can appeal to the Academy. All cases must be appealed through LOG-IN online and complete the Appeal Form.
