Two CARPIMS scholars, who began their studies at the University of the South Pacific in Fiji in February 2013, won gold medals for the best overall results in a postgraduate diploma. There were five recipients of this award: two from the Caribbean and three from Fiji. Each awardee gained a perfect GPA of 4.5.

The King of Tonga, King Tupou VI, presented the award at the recently held presentation ceremony. This Gold Medal, Awards and Prizes Ceremony is a special event, held two days before the actual graduation ceremony. There were 29 recipients of these medals, awards and prizes out of a graduating cohort of almost 1,300 students.

Kerwin Livingstone (current lecturer from the University of Guyana) pursued a Master of Education, and Camille Reid (UWI St. Augustine graduate from Jamaica) pursued an MA in Psychology.
