Examinations & Assessment

All students are required to sit for a written examination for all modules at the end of each term. Students must fulfil the attendance requirement of at least 75% for each module before they are considered eligible to take the end-of-semester examinations.

The candidate will be allowed to sit for the supplementary examination(s) for the module(s) that they have failed in the main examination. However, a supplementary examination fee applies.

To repeat a failed module, a student must attend classes and pay a re-module fee before he/she is considered eligible to take the examinations.

Students may re-module any single module up to a maximum of two times. However, the student must complete the DBM programme within three years from the intake he/she is registered in.

All examination questions and the marking of scripts will be moderated and/or examined by the Marketing Institute of Singapore Training Centre Examination Board before they are released to students. The decision of the Board is final and no correspondence will be entertained.
