To be successful, you need to learn not only the business needs of your clients but also their attitudes and approach to business and their outlook on the world. Thomas firmly believes in this, "Experience counts a lot." You learn from your own experience as well as from the experience of others. It was this sharing of knowledge that helped him when he embarked on his profession. Click here for details. |

Confidentiality of workshop unseen additional questions |
|
|
|
|
|
Candidates taking the QP workshops are reminded to keep the unseen additional questions, distributed at workshops, CONFIDENTIAL and limit discussion to the workshop group only. These questions are used for assessment purpose. Disclosure of the questions and/or topics covered by the questions to candidates of other workshop groups will create an unfair advantage.
You have an important role to play in ensuring the integrity of our QP assessment. As QP registered student, you have an ethical obligation to help maintain a fair and reputable workshop assessment. You should report to the Institute any solicitations or disclosures breaching the confidentiality of workshop assessment questions.
The Institute's examinations board has made it a rule that it is a serious offence to copy down workshop additional questions or take them out of your workshop in any form without the Institute's proper authorization. The examinations board may disqualify a candidate from the whole module (i.e. both the workshop and module examination components) and subject the candidate to disciplinary action if he/she is found in breach of this rule. |

Special consideration for QP workshops |
|
|
|
|
|
QP candidates may offer an explanation for non-attendance at a QP workshop so that their marks may be adjusted. Any such request for special consideration with supporting documents must reach the director of student education and training within two weeks from the date of absence.
The Institute's examinations board is the only body empowered to decide whether or not marks will be adjusted. The examinations board will consider each request based on its own merit, taking into account any special circumstance when finalizing the candidate's marks. |
