Accreditation
The Oxford Diploma is accredited by the Oxford School of Learning. To achieve the Diploma all the homework, all the Case Studies have to be done and discussed. Then, if the student feels that s/he meets the criteria for the Diploma a statement is made in the Q/A.
Then INDEPENDENT ASSESSORS come in and assess the claim.
Therefore everyone who achieves the Diploma has really worked hard, learned a lot, shared a lot.
That’s why it is a Diploma of Achievement – fewer than 30 out of 243,000 students have achieved it!
