Implications
Please note that these 2 reports (Course and Campus) must be validated and submitted together, however when adding them to the submission the Course must be listed first). If the reports are submitted in the wrong order the Campus file will fail to validate.
To select the required data for this report only the fees section needs to be updated each year. Only when reacrediting or adding new courses does the remaining data need to be changed. If you do make other alterations outside of reaccreditation your Course file will fail to validate in HEPCAT. Each year this file must be submitted no later than close of business 30th September.
Please refer to the current Higher Education Data Collection reporting Schedule for reporting dates and deadlines for any changes or updates.
