BRIDGETOWN, Barbados – The Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) and the Northern Caribbean University (NCU) signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on April 1, 2019 that will facilitate working collaboratively to ensure advanced standing to prospective students who present the CXC Associate Degree (CXC-AD®).
On the occasion, Registrar/CEO Glenroy Cumberbatch said, “This is a major milestone and an amazing accomplishment as we continue to work with institutions across the region to increase access to higher education for our learners. This comes after several meetings to review the CXC-AD® and to seek recognition of the CXC-AD® as a higher education qualification. I would like to recognise and thank all the staff who participated in this exercise. This is part of CXC’s efforts to increase access to affordable higher education opportunities for Caribbean learners.”
In 2018, conversations began with several institutions across the region. In October 2018, the subcommittee of the School Examinations Committee (SUBSEC) approved the revised CXC®-AD Handbook. After approval, the Council signed letters of intent with tertiary institutions in the region including the NCU, as well as the University of the Southern Caribbean (USC) and the College of Agriculture, Science and Education (CASE). Also, the University of the West Indies (UWI) indicated its intention to award students with specified CXC®-ADs with advanced standing.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
