Following extensive engagement and discussions with QQI, Hibernia College is delighted to announce that QQI’s Programmes and Award Executive Committee have agreed the following amended award classification system for the Professional Master of Education (PME) awards.
As a result of this approval, the award classifications for graduates of the PME programmes will be revised as follows;
Result Range | Former Award | New Award |
---|---|---|
70%+ | 1st Class Honours | 1st Class Honours |
60% - 69% | 2nd Class Honours | 2nd Class Honours Grade 1 (2:1) |
50% – 59% | Pass | 2nd Class Honours Grade 2 (2:2) |
40% - 49% | Pass | Pass |
The College will now commence the implementation of this change immediately, applying these amendments retrospectively to all impacted graduates of PME programmes. Given the extensive and complex process involved the College envisages concluding this exercise over the next 6 months.
