Vivas
Where an applicant is called back for a viva this will be held on the date shown against the course attended. If an applicant is unable to attend on that date, the viva will be held over to the next viva date.
The viva will test those areas of the open and/or closed book case study in which the candidate has not demonstrated a full understanding. The meeting is held with a panel of assessors and lasts approximately 45 minutes. Results are given verbally on the day and then confirmed in writing.
