Students are graded as follows:
To receive a PASS in any course students must in addition to course content, receive a PASS in Professional Behaviour; this requires that the student demonstrates an ability to take direction, an ability to meet deadlines, to treat everyone with respect, to demonstrate effort and focus, and a professional level of attendance and punctuality. Without a PASS in Professional Behaviour, the final grade will not be higher than a LOW PASS.
