Understanding Our Postgraduate Credit System for:   Postgraduate Diploma;    Postgraduate Certificate;    Postgraduate Short Courses;  Credit-Hours;  Credit-Value; and  Accumulated Credit-Hours.  Credit-Hours and Credit-Values   Credit-Hours are the actual amount of time that a lecturer or tutor spends with his or her students or delegates, in both Classroom-based and Video-Enhanced Deliveries. Each Five-Day Classroom-Based, or Ten-Day Video-Enhanced (3 hours per day) Course consists of 30 Credit-Hours, while a 6-Day Classroom-based course amounts to 36 Credit-Hours. Because Credit-Values are calculated in multiples of 30 Credit-Hours, 60-89 Credit-Hours have a Double-Credit (2 Credit) value, while 90 Credit-Hours earn a Triple-Credit (3 Credits).     Postgraduate Diploma Award   A Postgraduate Diploma Award is achieved with a minimum of 360 Credit-Hours, through continuous study, or an accumulation of Credit-Hours.    Postgraduate Certificate Award   A Postgraduate Certificate might be gained with a minimum of 180 Credit-Hours, through continuous study or Credit-Hours' accumulation.   Postgraduate Short Course Awards   A delegate who successfully completes a Postgraduate Short Course of 30 or more Credit-Hours, but which is less than 180 Credit-Hours (Postgraduate Certificate), is awarded a Diploma – Postgraduate. These Awards are assigned Credit-Values and Credit-Hours, as are exemplified by the following:   Diploma – Postgraduate – in Organisational Change Management, 30 Credit-Hours;   Diploma - Postgraduate - in Trainer Training: Training for Trainers, Double-Credit, 60 Credit-Hours:   Property Law: Conveyancing and Property Valuation, Quad-Credit, 120 Credit-Hours; Diploma – Postgraduate – in University and Higher Education Administration, Triple-Credit, 90 Credit-Hours;   Diploma – Postgraduate – in Tourism and International Relations, Quad-Credit, 120 Credit-Hours.    Cumulative Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma.    All Postgraduate Short Courses accumulate to a Postgraduate Certificate and a Postgraduate Diploma, on a ‘Pic and Mix’ or Specialist basis. This means that we maintain academic records for each delegate, indicating the courses studied, with their Credit-Value and Credit-Hours, as are indicated above, under ‘Postgraduate Short Course Awards’. The Credit-Hours are aggregated to accumulate to at least 180 and 360 Credit-Hours, for a Postgraduate Certificate and a Postgraduate Diploma, respectively. Each Short Course Award (below a Postgraduate Certificate) indicates both the Credit-Value and Credit-Hours.    Accumulated Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma Award Titles  All Specialist Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma Programmes have predetermined Award Titles. Delegates who do not follow a specialism, for accumulation to a Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma,   receive a Generalist, rather than a Specialist, Award. However, a Specialist Award is given to delegates who studied at least seventy percent (70%) of their courses in a specialist grouping, as are  exemplified by:  Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting and Finance; Postgraduate Certificate in Accounting and Finance; Postgraduate Diploma in Business Communication; Postgraduate Certificate in Business Communication; Postgraduate Diploma in Corporate Governance; Postgraduate Certificate in Corporate Governance; Postgraduate Diploma in Costing and Budgeting; Postgraduate Certificate in Costing and Budgeting; Postgraduate Diploma in Client or Customer Relations; Postgraduate Certificate in Client or Customer Relations; Postgraduate Diploma in Engineering and Technical Skills; Postgraduate Certificate in Engineering and Technical Skills; Postgraduate Diploma in Events Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Events Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Health and Safety Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Health and Safety Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Health Care Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Health Care Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Human Resource Development; Postgraduate Certificate in Human Resource Development; Postgraduate Diploma in Human Resource Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Human Resource Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Information and Communications Technology (ICT); Postgraduate Certificate in Information and Communications Technology (ICT); Postgraduate Diploma in Leadership Skills; Postgraduate Certificate in Leadership Skills; Postgraduate Diploma in Law – International and National; Postgraduate Certificate in Law – International and National; Postgraduate Diploma in Logistics and Supply Chain Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Logistics and Supply Chain Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Management Skills; Postgraduate Certificate in Management Skills; Postgraduate Diploma in Maritime Studies; Postgraduate Certificate in Maritime Studies; Postgraduate Diploma in Oil and Gas Operation; Postgraduate Certificate in Oil and Gas Operation; Postgraduate Diploma in Oil and Gas Accounting; Postgraduate Certificate in Oil and Gas Accounting; Postgraduate Diploma in Politics and Economic Development; Postgraduate Certificate in Politics and Economic Development; Postgraduate Diploma in Procurement Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Procurement Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Project Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Project Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Public Administration; Postgraduate Certificate in Public Administration; Postgraduate Diploma in Quality Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Quality Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Real Estate Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Real Estate Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Research Methods and Report Writing; Postgraduate Certificate in Research Methods and Report Writing; Postgraduate Diploma in Risk Management; Postgraduate Certificate in Risk Management; Postgraduate Diploma in Sales and Marketing; Postgraduate Certificate in Sales and Marketing; The actual courses studied will be detailed in a student or delegate’s Transcript.

 Our Video-Enhanced Online Postgraduate Certificate and Diploma - Postgraduate - Short Courses

 In a move away from the traditional online courses and embracing recent developments in Computer-Mediated Distance Education (Crawford, 2003), HRODC Postgraduate Training Institute has introduced a Video-Enhanced Online delivery. This Online mode of delivery is revolutionary and, at the time of writing, is unique to our Institute.

 Our Video-Enhanced On-Line Mode is similar to being in a classroom – but virtually.

The tutor meets the individual or group, via Video and presents the course, in a similar manner to the classroom-based delivery;

Participants will see and interact with each other, and with the tutor.

They watch and discuss the various video cases and demonstration videos that form an integral part of our courses and programmes;

Their assessment is structured in a similar way to its classroom-based counterpart;

Each Postgraduate Diploma, Postgraduate Certificate, or Diploma - Postgraduate - Short Course usually starts on the 1st of each month, with the cut-off date being the 20th, for inclusion in the following month’s intake.

Despite taking twice as many days as its classroom-based rival, it amounts to the same number of Credit-Hours. For example, a 5-day (30 Credit Hours) classroom-based course will last 10 days, in Video-Enhanced On-Line mode. This calculation is based on 3 hours tuition per day, in line with the Institute’s required 30 Credit Hours;

Postgraduate Diploma Programme Deliveries last 20 weeks, while Postgraduate Certificate is of a 10-week duration, based on lectures of 3 hours per day, 6 days per week;

The cost of the Video-Enhanced On-Line mode is 67% of the classroom-based programme or course.

Like their classroom-based counterparts, our online Postgraduate Short Courses accumulate to a Postgraduate Certificate or Postgraduate Diploma, within a 6-year period,

10-Week Video-Enhanced Online Postgraduate Certificate (180 HRS) 

You might study an Online Postgraduate Certificate, in the comfort of your homes, through HRODC Postgraduate Training Institute’s Video-Enhanced Online Delivery. We will deliver the 180 hours ‘Direct-Lecturer-Contact’, for the Postgraduate Certificate, as is required by our Institute’s Regulation, within the stipulated 10 weeks. We aim to fit the tuition around your work and leisure, thereby enhancing your effective ‘Life-Style Balance’, at times convenient to you and your appointed tutor.

Diploma -Postgraduate - and Postgraduate Certificate Assessment Requirement

Because of the intensive nature of our Courses and Programmes, assessment will largely be in-course, adopting differing formats. These assessment formats include, but not limited to, in-class tests, assignments, end of course examinations. Based on these assessments, successful candidates will receive the Diploma – Postgraduate, or Postgraduate Diploma, as appropriate.

In the case of Diploma – Postgraduate, a minimum of 70% overall pass is expected. In order to receive the Award of Postgraduate Diploma, candidates must have accumulated at least the required minimum ‘credit-hours’, with a pass (of 70% and above) in at least 70% of the courses taken.

Delegates and students who fail to achieve the requirement for Postgraduate Diploma, or Diploma - Postgraduate - will be given support for 2 re-submissions for each course. Those delegates who fail to achieve the assessment requirement for the Postgraduate Diploma or Diploma - Postgraduate - on 2 resubmissions, or those who elect not to receive them, will be awarded the Certificate of Attendance and Participation.

Diploma – Postgraduate - and Postgraduate Diploma Application Requirements

Applicants for Diploma – Postgraduate – and Postgraduate Diploma are required to submit the following documents:

Completed Postgraduate Application Form, including a passport sized picture affixed to the form;

A copy of Issue and Photo (bio data) page of the applicant’s current valid passport or copy of his or her Photo-embedded National Identity Card;
