Reassessment of Result and Academic Appeal Procedure
If a student is not happy with his/ her results, that student may appeal against their grade via a written letter, clearly stating the grounds of appeal to the Director of Studies. This should be submitted after completion of the subject and within fourteen days of commencement of the new term.
Reassessment:
If a student does not qualify for resubmission or is still deemed Not Yet Competent (NYC) after the resubmission, they will need to go through the reassessment process. To qualify for reassessment, the student must have completed and submitted the required assessments for the unit of competency as per the unit assessment schedule. Student will get three reassessments attempt, without any additional penalty/ fee.
Reassessment will occur only for those assessment tasks in which the student is deemed NYC. Reassessment is a formal process and student must apply for reassessment through Request for Reassessment Form available from the reception. ON approval and payment of reassessment fees, a reassessment schedule will be advised.
If still failed in three reassessment attempts, the student will need to repeat (re-sit) the unit.
Re-sit (or Repeat):
The student will need to re-sit the unit in the following term/semester if they are not deemed eligible for any of the above post-assessment options; i.e., both the options of resubmission and reassessment have been exhausted. The student will also need to re-sit the unit if the result from reassessment is still Not Yet Competent (NYC). Re-sit may result in extension of course duration and may affect student’s original completion date of the course. Student will need to pay a pro rata fee of the course fee to re-sit for the unit. Student should contact the admin department if he/she remains NYC after 3 attempts of reassessment. Admin team/ student support officer will liaise with accounts and academic team and issue the special training plan and the invoice for the resit attempt to the student. Student will be advised if there is a need to amend the CoE at this stage.
If a course is extended by an academic term, a pro-rata term fee based on total course fee will apply as per the course fees specified in the International Student Agreement.
Resit mean repeating the entire unit of competency.
Resit is a formal process and student will be advised of their resit options once all the term results are published. In the event where a student has been deemed NYC in 50% or more units within a study period, they will be asked to attend a course progress interview and go through the course progress process according to college’s Course Progress Policy. Late Submission Fee: A late fee of $100 per unit will be charged if students fail to submit assessments on due dates.
Absentees: Students are absent on the day of the assessment without prior approval or a valid reason (e.g. medical certificate) will be marked Not Yet Competent and will be subject to college’s Course Progress Policy.

Academic Appeals
A student may appeal against a decision in writing to the Academic Manager within 2 (two) weeks of publication of the final results.
If the appeal is in respect of an assessment or an outcome from the reassessment process, a review of available information/data is conducted within a reasonable timeframe by the course coordinator in consultation with CEO. The appellant will be given the opportunity to formally present his/her case. This is designed to ensure fairness and consistency and underpins the continuous improvement process.
If the appeal is to dispute the outcome of a complaint other than an assessment, the appeal will be scheduled to be heard by an independent person or panel, inviting the appellant to formally present his/her case.
Upon a decision being made, the appellant is provided with a written statement of the appeal outcomes, including reasons for the decision. Please refer to the Complaints & Appeals Policy for further details. Student Declaration

Case Study
AlliedSignal (now Honeywell) is a diversified manufacturing and technology business selling products in the aerospace, automotive, chemicals, fibers, and plastics industries. In 1999, the company had more than 70,000 employees and annual sales exceeding $15 billion. Although some of the AlliedSignal’s products used new technologies or helped other firms create new technologies, many of the products were commodity items that were manufactured and sold just as they had been for decades. In early 1999, AlliedSignal’s CEO, Larry Bossidy, called together the heads of the company’s business units for a one-day conference to develop strategic plans for electronic commerce at the company. He invited Michal Dell, chairman and CEO of Dell Computers, and John Chambers, CEO of Cisco Systems, to speak about their companies electronic commerce implementation successes.
At the end of the day Bossidy, gave the business unit heads their marching orders. They were to take what they had learned and create a strategy for implementing electronic commerce in their business units – in two months. Bossidy told the room full of rather stunned managers that, although most of their business units were at or near the top of their industries, the Internet would change everything. He believed that the kinds of electronic commerce strategies that has worked so well for Dell and Cisco in the computer industry could also work in many of AlliedSignal’s businesses. He wanted to make sure that AlliedSignal was the first to exploit those strategies and any other strategies that the business managers could devise. In tow months, each manager reported back with a strategy that included multiple electronic commerce projects, such as website for selling products, providing customer service, improving cooperate infrastructure, managing supply chains, coordinating logistics, holding auctions, and creating virtual communities. These plans were evaluated in the company’s regular annual budget process, and the best ones were chosen for funding and implementation.
In a matter of months, one of the largest industrial enterprise in the world had drastically altered its course, setting sail for the unchartered waters of the first wave of electronic commerce. In the years since, AlliedSignal has gone through many changes, including a merger with Honeywell. The initiatives it undertook as a result of this first electronic commerce strategic planning session were important in making the company an attractive merger candidate. Today, as part of Honeywell, the businesses that were formerly
AlliedSignal are using a wide range of Internet technologies in a variety of their supply chain management and purchasing functions.
