Dear colleagues,

I'm currently translating a Cambridge English Language Assessment Certificate (it's a certified translation into German).
On the bottom right side of the certificate, it says "DP835".
Does anyone know what this abbreviation stands for? I googled it and couldn't find an answer. I only noticed that other Cambridge Certificates contain the "DP" abbreviation as well, but with different numbers.

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Data Processing Mar 8, 2019

Since the number differs I assume it could be 'Data Processing' , now with the EU law on on processing personal data.

Thank you! Mar 11, 2019

Dear all,

thank you very much for your suggestions!

I actually noticed that other Cambridge Certificates for this specific examination (Cambridge English Level 3 Certificate in ESOL International (Proficiency)) also have the number "DP835", so I suppose that this is just the identification number/identification code for this type of certificate. I therefore simply used "DP835" in my translation.

"Diploma programme" might be the correct meaning of this abbreviation, but I'm not 100 % sure, because it seems to be used mainly in the context of the International Baccalaureate® (IB) Diploma Programme (DP), not in the context of Cambridge Certificates.
