In recognition of the fact that our college partners around the world may be offering internal courses/awards of high quality, a new ABE exemption policy will be available to colleges/students as of the December 2011 examinations.
Exemptions will be available in all programmes at levels 4 to 6 as follows:
Because of the need to employ UK academics to evaluate applications for exemptions, there will be fees attached to that application, per level. However, if successful, this will grant the college a period of up to 3 years to allow the student body to apply for ABE exemptions. Students will be expected to pay the equivalent of the UK examination fee, at the appropriate level, to obtain the exemptions.
Colleges will be expected to submit details of the internal award, syllabus, mode of assessment and level as part of the application.
Application form and further details can be obtained through the Qualifications Officer, Michael Powell at: michaelp@abeuk.com.
