Entry Process

Application for Assessment

All learners enrolled on any of the above programmes must be informed of the ICB’s accreditation and procedures at the commencement of the programme as well as the dates for the summative assessments as per the ICB Certification Programme Prospectus.

Learners must be provided with the ICB Certification Programme Prospectus upon commencement of any learning area. The prospectus will contain the Assessment Entry / Recognition of Prior Learning Form, and the Membership Registration Form. Assessment entry / RPL application and membership registration are separate processes. These forms must be completed and sent to the ICB and/or tabulated in the ICB assessment entry spreadsheet if applicable. It is critical that there are no delays in this process. Upon receipt of the information at the ICB, the ICB will record all learner information on the ICB database. Learners will receive the ICB Assessment Envelope 5 working days after receipt of the assessment entry. Learners who have not entered for an assessment with the ICB will NOT receive an Assessment Envelope.

Learners, who do not include the ICB’s unique reference number on the assessments, will not be able to be tracked and thus their assessments will not be assessed. The ICB will supply the unique learner numbers on the Assessment Envelopes and Assessment Entry Confirmation Form.

Once registered for a summative assessment, the learner may not cancel the assessment entry, but the learner may postpone the entry to a following summative assessment date upon receipt of a Doctor’s certificate or a motivational letter from the learner’s employer/campus Principal or equivalent. The postponement must be received by the ICB by the original summative assessment date and the postponement must indicate to which summative assessment date the postponement is for as per the summative assessment timetable.

Applications for postponements received after the original summative assessment date will not be considered.
