21 October 2021 – System Administrator Fix – updated the placeholder in relation to the title change of the Advanced Standing Policy to Credit for Prior Learning Policy which did not update due to a cron task feature that prevented the automatic update for documents published as ‘future versions’. The amendments to this Academic Senate approved document are submitted for approval under Delegation HH15. The policy has been updated to reflect the new nomenclature of the Student Management System (SMS). The terminology changes (as relevant) include: ‘course’ to ‘program’; ‘unit’ to ‘subject’; ‘teaching session’ to ‘term’; ‘key program’ to ‘major’; ‘specialisation’ to ‘major’; ‘sub-major’ to minor’; ‘advanced standing’ to ‘Credit for Prior Learning’; ‘special consideration’ to ‘Disruption to Studies’; and ‘enrol in units’ to ‘register in subjects’.Master of Research Policy
