CIM Lanka achieves 55.08% pass rate

The Chartered Institute of Marketing Sri Lanka created history again by achieving a 55.08% pass rate at the June 2006 examination. The results were released last week.

There was more reason for celebration as this percentage was only second to UK who achieved a pass rate of 58.12% thus Sri Lanka bridging the gap further this session. Chitrangani Herat Gunaratne, Head of Education, CIM Sri Lanka Region said "Our pass rates have grown steadily in the past few years and we can be jubilant of the present achievement. The tutor and student seminars conducted by CIM Sri Lanka Region has been of immense assistance to all and we are confident that we can look forward to even better results and more prize winners in the future".

The Sri Lanka Region achieved higher pass rates than UK in subjects such as Analysis and Evaluation, Managing Marketing Performance and Strategic Marketing in Practice all being Stage III modules of The Professional Postgraduate Diploma in Marketing level. "Managing Marketing Performance was a module of grave concern and we have now achieved more than a 50% pass rate and even bettered CIM UK", said an official of CIM Sri Lanka Regional Office.
