Each certificate has a unique development timeline to ensure the models are deeply connected to the purpose of the SHSM program and Ministry of Education curriculum. Currently, the Institute aims for a weekly launch of new certificates. 

End Point Assessments, or EPAs, are a summative evaluation of all modules within a training program. SHSM Certificates must include one of the five EPA methods:

• a practical assessment;
• an interview;
• a project;
• written and/or multiple-choice tests; OR
• a presentation. 

Students who complete each module and receive a pass or distinction on their EAP get an official certificate for their portfolio. 

Certificates are mailed to the school care of the SHSM Lead who completed the booking. 

We acknowledge that life can bring unexpected challenges, even with the best intentions. When a student is unable to participate in training or complete their training, two things can occur:

1. Student is unable to start training: a seat credit is provided to the school for use when the student can participate.
2. Student is removed/stops during a training session: in discussion between the facilitator and the SHSM lead a re-seat of the missed modules may be possible.
