Summary of Changes from Previous Version

The reference to Microcredential Procedures was foreshadowed in the Curriculum Design and Approvals (CDA) Policy and Curriculum Structure Procedures, including in the Curriculum Principles. These procedures have been designed to be a companion to the existing Curriculum Structure Procedures which cover AQF qualifications. They do not replace any existing academic policy document, extending the University’s academic policy suite to cover microcredentials (MCs). The parent policy for these procedures is the CDA Policy.

There will be a 12-month implementation review of these procedures.
