STUDENT POLICY & PROCEDURES

Purpose
The Student Policy is intended to assist the Institute in enabling students to achieve their learning potential. ITIL recognizes the investment that students make, both in time and money, in choosing to pursue the Award Courses programme and, as a responsible Institution, believes it has a duty to follow-up promptly on matters of non-attendance, assignments submission and online learning participation so that students can be supported and given every opportunity to succeed
Scope
This policy applies to all students enrolled for the Award Courses such as NEBOSH or City & Guilds operated by ITIL.
Attendance
A record of attendance will be kept for all studentsAll students must attend all scheduled and arranged tuition sessions, whether face to face or through internet.Sessions such as Assessment tests, Assignment presentation and induction sessions are compulsory.   The Institute reserves the right to refuse participation to examination for student with less than 75% attendance without any refund.
Online Learning
Where a student cannot attend classes, online courses may be accessible for a maximum of 3 lessons:
  • Students will be provided a username and password
  • No sharing of account is allowed and a student’s account may be cancelled and the student not registered for examinations if found in breach of this policy.
Copyright laws apply to the contents of the website which must be used only for the purpose intended. If a student is found in breach with this policy, he may have his account discontinued; registration cancelled and will also be liable to prosecution under copyright laws.
Learner policy
All Students should
  • Always read the notes before face to face sessions to be able to participate fully.
  • Effectively manage their time and complete learning activities within time limit stated
  • Ensure that they have access to computer, internet connection
  • Any important communication (notification of absence, registration or deregistration etc) must be done via e-mail (integral@intnet.mu) or in writing submitted to the centre.
  • Be polite and respectful while communicating via forum, e-mail, etc
 Class Representative
To facilitate communication, a class representative will be elected, his role will be to:
  • Communicate information to the class
  • Liaise with the tutor concerning any issues arising among students
  • Coordinate learning activities
 Timetabled Commitments
Students should check their timetable as soon as it is available and ensure that they understood what is expected from them.Reading of notes must be done before attending classes and student should attempt all allocated homework and assignments.

Deadlines given by the tutor for submission of learning activities (such as lesson learning questions, past exams questions, presentations, assignments and homework) must be adhered to.

 Any difficulties in meeting deadlines must be notified in writing with appropriate evidence to integral@intnet.mu.

Students should check email communications regularly for information that may include important timetabling changes or any additional assignments and notes.

 Absence from Classes
Students should notify the Institute in writing of any absence from compulsory classes
For longer periods of absence, where there is a likely negative impact upon study, or when the absence falls at a time of assessment and the student wishes to request concessions, the student must give written notification to the institute on integral@intnet.mu with appropriate evidence (such as a medical certificate).
 Action in the event of non Attendance or non-completion of learning activities
Where there is systematic and persistent non attendance, where students fail to submit learning activities, where they take an excessive time to complete learning activities or during long period of unexplained inactivity:
  • Students are unlikely to receive a sympathetic hearing from the Director of Studies
  • We reserve the right to withdraw candidates from their learning programme (without refunding course fees)
Tardiness
Students should arrive on time for classes. Late arrival causes disruption to other class members and is unfair to the tutor.
