Course Progress Policy
Oscar Institute monitors, records and assesses the course progress of each student for the course in which the student is enrolled. The Course Progress Policy defines the requirements for satisfactory course progress, the processes for monitoring, recording and assessing student course progress, and the intervention strategies for identifying and assisting students to achieve satisfactory course progress. The procedure sets out the processes for reporting unsatisfactory course progress on PRISMS according to ESOS Act Section 19.
Oscar Institute assesses a student's progress at the end of each compulsory Term. The Term is 11 weeks long for all qualifications on the CRICOS scope. While every attempt is made to keep consistency in term weeks, the number of weeks in a defined term may also factor in the duration and completion of units of competency, which enables Oscar Institute to determine student participation and course progress in any given successfully completed term. One Term is considered the minimum length of time in which it is reasonable for the Administration Manager to make an assessment of a student's course progress.
Satisfactory Progress
Satisfactory course progress is achieved where a student successfully completes at least 50% of course requirements in a successfully completed Term.
Unsatisfactory Progress
Unsatisfactory progress is defined as not successfully completing or demonstrating competency in more than 50% of the course requirements in a successfully completed Term.
Course Breach
A course breach is defined as not successfully completing or demonstrating competency in more than 50% of course requirements in TWO consecutive successfully completed Terms, or not responding to an intervention meeting invitation within 10 working days of receiving the invitation.
Oscar Institute will also monitor overseas student attendance (but would not report unless otherwise required) in the process of course progress monitoring and reporting. However, overseas students must meet their visa obligations regarding attendance, wherever applicable.
