Hi guys,
Can anyone tell me is there a difference between an Advanced Certificate and a Diploma?
I recently graduated from a distance learning course on the understanding that upon completion I would receive a Diploma. This was said several times throughout the year, it's advertised on the college website and it was presented to me at graduation as "a diploma".
However the actual certificate says "Advanced Certificate" and doesn't have the word "Diploma" anywhere on it.
Should I be worried?
