Our Core Commitment to Quality

Since 2013 Core has been providing the following exam support to students FREE OF CHARGE as part of our commitment to quality:

Assessment of comments on Script Review Report and personal advice

Weaker students who have previously been unsuccessful in a paper are encouraged to obtain a Script Review Report from the HKICPA and discuss the report with the lecturers. If you’re unsure whether you should get a Script Review Report, talk to a Core lecturer on 25 Feb at our Free Seminar.

Marking of assignments with personal feedback

All Core lecturers set assignments for students to practice at home. The assignments are then marked and returned with personal feedback either on paper, via a one-to-one phone call or face-to-face discussion with the lecturers.

Marking of mock papers with personal feedback

All mock and additional mock answer scripts are marked and returned with personal feedback either on paper, via a one-to-one phone call or face-to-face discussion with lecturers.

Multi-channel Q&A support

Core lecturers are always happy to take questions during breaks, after class and on email. For more difficult questions, Core lecturers call students on the phone to for more detailed discussions. Q&A support are now also available in our Zoom Study Groups.
