Extension of Time
It is important that you note the 90 days period to complete each module you have registered. You will be alerted twice by our system (10 remaining days and 5 remaining days) before the due date for the completion of the module. When you are at the last remaining 5 days stage, you must quickly contact our administrator to request for an extension of time to complete the module if this is required by you.
