Student Information Service (Attendance, Registration and CoCs)

Q1: Will you still require attendance confirmation at each liability point?

A: The number of attendance confirmations that are required will be relative to the length of the specific year of the course, between 1 and 4.

Before we release any payment of Tuition Fee Loan support, we must receive a positive attendance confirmation from the relevant provider, in respect of each payment period.

Q2: Will there be system changes under the Student Information Service (SIS)?

A: Yes, there will be changes to SIS export and upload functions. We have published the “LLE Application, Attendance and Registration - Import and Export Files V1.0 - estimated go live date of September 2026” and “LLE Change of Circumstances Bulk CSV Process V1.0 - estimated go live date of September 2026” technical specifications on the HE Gateway. These documents provide information on the files which can be exported from and imported into SIS for LLE applications. We'll be providing SIS functional training and functional guidance documentation as additional support.

Q3: Is SLC communicating with my IT supplier?

A: SLC has a mailing list of all IT suppliers and known contacts at providers that supply IT systems internally. We also have a supplier working group which focuses on discussing proposed changes to the HEP facing systems within SLC. However, we expect providers to liaise with their IT suppliers and share technical specifications and any other requirements that you need for your systems.
