Continuing Education Academic Grievance and Appeal Form

Continuing Education Academic Grievance and Appeal Form

Trainees who would like to file an appeal against a decision regarding their academic results in the program or module should discuss the matter with their instructor. If a satisfactory resolution is unattainable, trainees may file an appeal to the Continuing Education Program Manager. If the resultant solution is unsatisfactory, trainees may escalate the matter to the Provost. Decisions made by the Provost are final. If you are unsure, please email ce.sg@digipen.edu.
