Awarding body registrations
You should make sure students are registered with the relevant awarding body before you confirm attendance on SIS. You must check that all student details are correct on the HE Gateway and awarding body registration portal before you confirm attendance.
Smishing
Please remind your students of the importance of being aware of smishing scams during this time. Smishing is fraud using text messages. It’s currently the most popular form of scam targeted at students. Please advise that we’ll never ask them to provide or verify their personal or financial information via email or text message.
