Overview

International Grade Comparisons (IGC) is an Ecctis advanced research tool featuring over 130 countries. It allows users to compare examination grades in key qualifications from across the world to UK standards. This contextualises student performances, gives clarity to levels of achievement and informs thresholds that are based on examination grades.

We will explore how IGC can be used to help with decision-making by showing how suitable student performances can be made, especially within international admissions, by using this advanced tool.

The webinar uses real-life case studies, provides tips on how to get the best out of the advanced tool and shows how IGC can be used in tandem with other Ecctis services.
