Exams can be held anytime, at an appointed venue i.e. there is no set time limit between starting a module and sitting the exam.
When the candidate is ready to take the exam an invigilator must be appointed on their behalf. The ‘Invigilator’ may be a Training Manager, OIM or Senior Manager. The invigilator must be responsible for the receipt of the exam papers, security of the papers, invigilation of the exams and return of papers. The invigilator must contact:
Once appointed, the exam papers will be sent to the invigilator. Included with the papers will be an invigilation form for signature of the invigilator and rules and procedures for the exam. If, however, you do not wish to sit the exam at your workplace, you may sit the exam, free of charge at our offices at Minerva House. If this is not possible, then we suggest you contact your local college or learning centre to arrange to sit the exam on their premises. These arrangements must be made by the candidate. Some colleges may charge an invigilation and room hire fee which the candidate will be responsible for.
The examination is a two hour closed book written exam. Section A comprises of 20 short answer questions similar to the Test Yourself section in the workbooks. Section B comprises of three questions of which two must be answered – these require good, neat, correctly labelled drawings and a good descriptor. All questions in the paper relate to the information given in the workbooks.
Pass Marks: 60% -74% = Pass, 75% -84% = Credit, 85%- 100% = Distinction
Test yourself questions are available in the workbooks to help you prepare for your exams.
If you do not achieve the required pass mark (60%) in your module exam you will be able to re-sit your exam at no extra cost. However you will only receive a pass grade in your re-sit irrespective of your result.
Should you require to re-sit the same module exam more than once there will be an examination fee of £30.00
Each individual module in the Subsea Techology Series is priced at £150.00 For all 4 modules the total is £600.00 – See more at:
