Twelve distinctions have been registered by a number of students at the University of The Gambia's (UTG) Economics and Management Sciences Department in the external examination in diploma nd higher diploma in sales and marketing, administered by the London Centre of Marketing (LCM).

Reports reaching the Daily Observer indicated that three students obtained distinction or pass in all the modular courses for the diploma and higher diploma in sales and marketing. The trio - who were awarded individual modular certificates as well as an overall certificate for full pass at the level, are Bakary Sanneh and Kemo Khan and Amadou Jarju.

Other students, who obtained distinctions at the diploma level are Alhagie K Cham, Binta Khan and Zubaida Alturky and Mamadi Sowe. Mboru Drammeh and Hamadi Sowe obtained distinction at the high diploma level.

According to reports from the London Office of LCM, the UTG presented a total of 28 students or 77 modules out of which 12 distinctions were registered. "The students took 8 modular courses for the diploma and higher levels together and there was no modular course that a distinction was not registered by the UTG's students, which was indeed an impressive performance, thanks to the excellent coordinators and lecturers."

"These results are an indication that the UTG is not only offering relevant, quality and affordable academic education, but also it has developed capacity to offer outreach programs as well as professional and skills qualifications to satisfy the national needs and demands," said the UTG Economics and Management Sciences Department in a dispatch sent to the Daily Observer.

"Regrettably, there were 4 and 2 students who failed to secure passes in the modular courses that they have registered for at the diploma and higher diploma in sales and marketing levels respectively for the March 2008 LCM external examination.

Meanwhile, the university also recently registered 15 students for the upcoming June 2008 LCM Exam. All the papers for such examination are set and marked in London, United Kingdom. The UTG will be having its next intakes in June/July for the diploma, higher diploma and professional diploma in sales and marketing which would run for six months," the reports concluded.
