  4. Discussion of instituting a PGCert for the MAP-SP (and examining the status of its PGDip/PGDap ‘exit qual’).  Simon Tries suggests that all students enter the programme via a PGCert (if we institute a PGCert), rather than our going the route of instituting a PGCert as an exit qual.  Or: we likely would need an ‘exit qual’ clause in our regs (in order to change or close off a prior master’s-level enrolment when a student switches to a PGCert).

Notes: (Type 1 – if before 20 May or 10 Dec)
