Create Programme Offering

Introduction

A Programme Offering represents a specific instance or cohort of a programme (e.g., the 2025 intake of a B.Sc. in Information Systems). Programme offerings are required before applications, scheduling, and registration can occur.

Steps to Create a Programme Offering

1. Navigate to Programme > Create Programme Offering.

2. Complete the form with the required information.

3. Click Save.

Critical Points to Note

1. Grading Scale

   • Ensure the correct grading scale is selected.

   • ?? An incorrect scale will result in incorrect grade calculations.

2. Period / Schedule Type

   • Select how courses are offered:

     • Semester-based (e.g., Semester 1, Semester 2)

     • Cycle-based (ad hoc periods such as a day, multiple days, week, or even month)

3. Programme Version

   • This is a list of previously published programme offerings.

   • In some cases, it may also include versions approved by governing bodies (e.g., CCCJ).

4. Matriculation Rules

   • A set of rules/requirements used to determine if applicants meet the programme’s entry requirements.

   • Please review the Matriculation Rules documentation before creating a programme offering.

5. Cross Registration

   • Allows students in this programme to register for courses offered to students in another programme or cohort.

6. Institution

   • This option is used when creating a customized programme (e.g., for a partner institution or corporate training).

Editing and Publishing

• If the programme is not yet published, you can edit it on the same page where it was created.

• To publish a programme offering, go to Programme > Publish Programme Offering.

• Once published, all edits must be done using Programme > Modify Published Offering.

Next Steps

Once the programme offering is successfully created, you will be able to:

• Add courses to the programme.

• Define specializations where applicable.
