Implications
Search can be used prior to creating a new Course record to ensure that the Course name / Course Id hasn't be previously used in the system, as well as to view an existing Course record.
For a new course to make use of the course plan units will need to be associated with the Course. This would consist of Core units, electives and also include prerequisites to allow for course sequence and structure.
Editing a Course file should only be done under certain circumstances as it can have impact on historical student enrolments. Any updates need to be updated with HEIMS via the submission of a Course and Campus file set (currently via HEPCAT). If a Course is significantly different (due to re-accreditation) a new Course record should be created and reported to HEIMS (via HEPCAT) prior to enrolling any students in to the new Course

Implications
NOTE:
It is advised that a Search be performed before adding a new Course record, to check whether the Course name/Course Id has previously been used in the system, as well as to view an existing Course record.
For a new course to use the course plan, units will need to be associated with the course. This would consist of Core units, electives and also include prerequisites to allow for course sequence and structure.
Editing a Course record should only be done in consultation with Silverband and only under certain circumstances as any changes can impact many historical student enrolments.
If a Course is significantly different (e.g. due to re-accreditation) a new Course record should be created and successfully validated and reported to TCSI prior to enrolling any students into the new Course.
| Note |
|---|
BE ADVISED: VET institutions inheriting students from another institution as part of course assurance must be coded as belonging to a separate base course record that is dedicated to tracking the inherited student cohort. This field will be referenced for any unit enrolments that are reported to the government via TCSI. |
