Postgraduate Certificate pass

English to Spanish Other Education / Pedagogy
¡Hola a todos!

Estoy traduciendo un "Modular Programme Transcript" aparece lo siguiente:

QUALIFICATION AWARDED: Postgraduate Certficate pass

¿Alguien sabe a lo que se refiere? ¿Es un Certificado de posgrado apto o más bien un certificado de aptitud para el posgrado?

¡Muchas gracias de antemano!

English term (edited): postgraduate certificate (pass)
Selected

diploma/certificado de posgrado (aprobado)

Aunque, dependiendo de la universidad, puede haber una diferencia entre un "certificado" y un "diploma", creo que cualquiera de estas dos propuestas podría funcionar en este contexto.

Postgraduate Certificate (pass) = Diploma de Posgrado (aprobado)

With respect to "pass," it is exactly as explained in Lorena's reference, i.e., it's a classification, with "pass" suggesting the student has simply met the requirements, with "merit" and "distinction" reserved for exemplary work. In any event, this word would normally appear in parenthesis.

agree Marcelo González : Exactly: pass is just a classification, along with perhaps (depending on the university) "pass with distinction" or other such terms.
