Course assessment usually comprises of a comprehensive final exam and continuous assessment. Continuous assessment can include amongst others, mid-terms, projects and class participation.

Letter grades are calculated based on the weight of the final exam and the continuous assessment and the actual numerical marks obtained in these two assessment components. Based on the course grades the student’s semester grade point average (GPA) and cumulative point average (CPA) are calculated.

The student must complete 240 ECTS and all programme requirements including 2300 hours in clinical practice.

A minimum cumulative grade point average (CPA) of 2.0 is required. Thus, although a ‘D-‘ is a PASS grade, in order to achieve a CPA of 2.0 an average grade of ‘C’ is required.

Upon successful completion of this program, the students should be able to:

  1. Provide efficient, effective, individualized care, using appropriate assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementing and evaluating methods.
  2. Analyze the effective outcomes of practice using appropriate theory and research applied to practice.
  3. Practice within the scope of personal and professional competence and extent this scope as appropriate.
  4. Practice accountably and responsibly in their role as a professional and as role model for students and peers.
