I feel privileged to have been a member of such a team. In PeopleSoft, the Course Catalogue is the central repository of information that defines each course offered by the University past, present and proposed. The Catalogue is the backbone for all student records processing including enrolment, examinations, grading and graduations. Students enrol in courses for an academic year by selecting classes. The Schedule of Classes is very similar to course availability in the Jet system.
Classes are specific instances of a course governed by term, mode of offer and campus.
In order for a student to enrol in a course in any one term, there must be a scheduled class for the student to select. The ability to manage course catalogue and class data at the Faculty level will enhance service delivery to our students as information is controlled and maintained at the source. Classes for a full academic year should be scheduled for the forthcoming academic year enabling students to enrol in classes for the full year. Graduands A purpose-built Graduations Workbench will facilitate the processing of graduands. While the actual determination of eligibility to graduate will continue to be the product of manual review and assessment, the generation of a Likely and Expected Graduands Report triggers the production of academic advisement reports for all students identified as being likely or expected to graduate from a specified completion term.
