I REFER to Wednesday's report, 'School peddles fake RMIT degree'. RMIT University is proud of the excellent reputation of the programmes delivered at its partner institutions in Singapore.

RMIT graduates who studied at any of our official partner institutions can have full confidence in the validity of their degree certificates and transcripts.

Official RMIT certificates and transcripts of results are embedded with a range of security features, which have proven extremely effective in enabling us to identify fraudulent certificates.

RMIT has never had any association or agreement with Brookes Business School for the provision of RMIT programmes in Singapore or any other country.

The university will continue to assist students who wish to confirm the authenticity of their certificates. For more information and help, they can go to www.rmit.edu.au/awards/verify.
