Individual Professional Courses –
IPC
It is recognised by the University of London
that many professionals need to increase and update their
specialist knowledge by focusing on a particular subject instead
of undertaking a whole MSc or Diploma programme. CeFiMS provide
such professional training by distance learning through
Individual Professional Courses – IPCs, also referred to
as Short Courses.
An IPC can also act as a ‘taster’
for those unsure about the commitment involved in a full MSc
programme, or distance learning as a study method.
The IPCs are also very flexible. Students may choose up to three
courses from any of the programmes offered. Those who successfully
complete IPCs may apply to join the MSc which includes the completed
subject(s). If accepted to join the MSc, the IPC may be converted
into academic credit and the course unit would not need to be
repeated as part of the programme. Please note that students
are not permitted to be registered for an IPC and an MSc at
the same time.
Students
registered for Individual Professional Courses (Short
Courses) are classed as Occasional Students.
