What’s it about?
CRICOS registered providers must safeguard the integrity of Australia’s migration laws by supporting overseas students to complete their course within the required duration and fulfill their visa requirements for course attendance and course progress.
Overseas students must make satisfactory course progress and, where applicable, attendance as a condition of their student visa.
Based on the National Code 2018, a CRICOS registered provider must monitor overseas students’ course progress and, where applicable, attendance for each course in which the overseas student is enrolled. The registered provider must have and implement documented policies and processes to identify, notify and assist an overseas student at risk of not meeting course progress or attendance requirements where there is evidence from the overseas student’s assessment tasks, participation in tuition activities or other indicators of academic progress that the overseas student is at risk of not meeting those requirements.
Most of the CRICOS registered providers find it difficult to closely monitor academic progress and attendance which is primarily either due to lack of skilled staff or due to complicated policies and procedures that are confusing and mostly misinterpreted by the staff.
This short online course can help you develop a fundamental understanding of overseas student visa requirements. Providers may also use the course to assess competency of their staff involved in monitoring course progress and attendance of international students.
