Grading Policy and Methods of Evaluation

Grading Policy

Short Study and Micro-Credential programs follow the same grading policy as CCEC vocational programs. See the Academic Grading and Standing Policy.

Grading Scale

Methods of Evaluation

Completion Requirements

To receive a certificate, a student must:

• pass all required modules with a minimum grade of 60% (C);
• meet the minimum attendance requirement of 80% in each scheduled module; and
• settle all outstanding fees and balances.

Rewrites and Academic Integrity

A student who fails an evaluation may rewrite it, or retake the practical test, once. The maximum grade on a rewrite is the passing minimum of 60%. A student who fails the rewrite must repeat the module. All evaluations are subject to the College’s academic integrity rules on plagiarism and unassisted work.

Certificate of Completion

• Students who meet all requirements receive a Certificate of Completion.
• Digital certificates are generally issued through the LMS. For courses taken in person, certificates are issued within 10 to 15 business days after the final session.
• Each certificate has a unique serial number for verification.
• Not meeting the attendance or grade requirements may result in the certificate being withheld. For specific programs, a one-time retake may be available under the CCEC Guarantee in the STP Terms and Conditions.
