Apologies for the late reply.
My cohort...Hi ^oo^,<br /><br />Apologies for the late reply.<br /><br />My cohort was made up of about 25 people, with 70% of them from the financial sector. The others were made up of people who wanted to gain some additional knowledge on investing or for lifelong learning. After 1 semester, there were some drop-outs, but our size remained close to 20 or so.<br /><br />Coursework wise, for my batch, each module was consisted of 1 test and 1 exam (weightage of 30-70 if I remember correctly). For one module (the risk compliance one), instead of an exam, it was a written report assignment. There were no presentations or group work.<br /><br />Difficulty wise, it depends on the module. One of the toughest was the module involving quantitative finance, which had some failures for my batch and students from the previous batch repeating it in our class. <br /><br />Since graduating from the course, I noticed that there are some differences in the course structure now; previously it was 6 modules over 2 semesters (3 each), but now it is 8 modules (4 per semester).<br /><br />As I had done the course a few years ago, there might be some changes to what I had described above, so do take note.<br /><br />All the best!<br />Bedokian<br />Bedokianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10830693656509435888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-267434087271634120.post-85639188372864081662020-10-07T10:21:07.096+08:002020-10-07T10:21:07.096+08:00Hi bedokian,

As a specialist diploma, it is designed to develop specialisations and deepen their existing knowledge (source: https://www.nyp.edu.sg/admissions/lifelong-learners/useful-info/revised-post-dip-framework.html). A majority of students in my cohort are from the financial/fund industry, and they took it up to enhance their knowledge of their sector.<br /><br />Hope this answers your question.<br /><br />Cheers!Bedokianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10830693656509435888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-267434087271634120.post-6896685142286324452019-05-21T22:30:53.995+08:002019-05-21T22:30:53.995+08:00what jobs are related to this course?what jobs are related to this course?anonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08197085972623285734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-267434087271634120.post-63812791350042190592017-10-18T22:13:30.965+08:002017-10-18T22:13:30.965+08:00Hi Unintelligent Nerd,
