Credit Points

Credit points are units used to measure academic progress and achievement within educational programs. They represent the amount of coursework or effort required for a subject or module. Typically, completing a certain number of credit points is necessary to fulfill degree requirements. For example, a standard course might be worth 3 or 6 credit points, indicating the workload and time commitment involved. Accumulating the required points signifies that a student has met the necessary educational milestones to progress or graduate. This system helps both students and institutions track academic progress systematically.
