Upon completion of all programme modules, students’ results are reviewed at the Progression Board in order to be confirmed. Upon confirmation, and considering that students meet all academic requirements, their award will be confirmed at Senate. The Progression Boards are scheduled periodically throughout the year, normally six times a year.
Once an award has been confirmed, all graduates are notified by the Office of the Registrar. Certificate and transcripts are conferred either at the graduation ceremony (considering that a physical ceremony is taking place) or in absentia. Currently, graduation ceremonies are held virtually, once a year.
All graduates will receive an email with a link to view their certificate and transcripts through the Premier Cert+ platform. Relevant information in regards to receiving their Certificate is provided to all graduates upon confirmation of the date of the graduation ceremony. Once the issuance process is completed, the documents will be sent to Unicaf Headquarters and are then dispatched to students via a courier service. Once dispatched, a tracking number is provided to students through email.
For further information, please contact the Office of the Registrar at registrar@unicaf.org.
