Student engagement policies and guidance

Policies set parameters for decision-making and provide the "why". Procedures set out a series of actions that should be conducted in a certain manner and explain the "how". Compliance with both policy and procedures is mandatory unless otherwise indicated.
Guidelines and guidance are provided as tools to assist in the interpretation and application of policies and procedures, or to provide general information on a subject. Compliance with guidelines and guidance is strongly encouraged but is not mandatory, unless otherwise indicated.
Frameworks are holistic documents containing elements of both policy and guidance, applied to a specific task or concept.
Codes of Practice are contractual implications or expectations of behaviour on the University, or on a proportion of the University.
