Tertiary Education
Motion:
That ICPA (Aust) requests the University Council of Deans to continue to look at the way credits and advance standings could be transferred from one academic transcript to another when a rural and remote student moves from one university to another.
Explanation:
Louth ICPA asks for this because we believe the circumstance is unfair when a university degree course unit has been completed and passed that a student is required to re-do and pay again for that same unit.
When degree courses are certified by DoE, we feel the lack of unit acknowledgment is an inequitable deterrent for students’ success in achieving qualifications; requiring more time to complete (increased accommodation costs) plus having to pay twice for the unit.
