Cosmetic Science Diploma 2017
Another bumper year in terms of student intake was experienced . Forty students registered for Module 1 , twenty of these were correspondence students and the other twenty local class students . Twenty-two students registered for Module 2 . As only four of these opted for the local classes they were all converted to correspondence students as per the Course criteria .
The Course took its toll on a number of students for varying reasons from personal issues , to simply not meeting the exam entry criteria or failing the exams . Twenty-eight of the original forty Module 1 students met the Exam Entry Criteria . Of these twenty-six passed and two students were required to write Supplementary Exams . Sixteen of the original twenty-two Module 2 students met the Exam Entry Criteria . Only twelve passed and the other four were required to write Supplementary Exams . These statistics indicate just how tough this course is . Without a lot of hard work and dedication students cannot simply walk away with our Cosmetic Science Diploma .
