Find information on when you will receive your results, how you can see your results, grading scales and reconsiderations.
Assessment results
The results for individual assessments in a course are released when marking has been completed.
You can see the result on your returned marking sheet or on your MyOP Learner Portal. These results are provisional as they may be subject to change when the course results are finalised. Further information on Assessments can be found here:
Assessments | Everything you need to know
Course results
Course results are released after they have been approved by the Results and Awards Committee.
Courses with exams and other assessments where results are not finalised until the end of the enrolment period will have their results approved and released within four to five weeks of the course end date. Otherwise, learners who complete all assessments will have their final results approved and released monthly.
The time between the completion of your last assessment and the release of results is required to undertake quality assurance checks of result data and ensure the integrity and robustness of the assessment process.
Course grades
Your level of achievement in each course will be recognised with a course grade.
For information about our grading scales:
