Student Identification

You will be issued with a student card, either physical or digital, once your registration is complete. Have your student card with you at all times, as well as a valid form of photo identification should you only have a digital student card, especially when writing tests and exams. You will not be permitted into the examination venue without valid photo identification as laid out in The IIE009 Assessment Strategy and Policy.

Cumulative Assessment (CASS)

The entry requirement for all The IIE exams is a CASS mark of 40% average. It is important to keep an eye on the Student Portal and your CASS mark leading up to the final exams to ensure that you know if you qualify to write the exam.

Integrated Curriculum Engagement (ICE)

Integrated Curriculum Engagement (ICE) tasks will be conducted throughout the semester for each module. The completed tasks contribute 10% towards your CASS mark. It is your responsibility to attend classes and receive copies of the ICE tasks and requirements in order to benefit from these activities.

ICE tasks are not limited to in-class activities. ICE tasks have been designed for completion on VC Learn before, during or after class.

Referencing and Plagiarism

It is important that you attend the very informative referencing and plagiarism workshops offered on campus to familiarise yourself with the requirements for referencing when submitting any formative or summative submissions. Plagiarism is academic theft and will be treated very seriously.

SafeAssign

All theoretical assignments must be submitted through the relevant anti-plagiarism tool, SafeAssign (this will be indicated on your PAS). It is your responsibility to ensure you submit your assignment using the correct anti-plagiarism tool. You will receive your login details for the site with the list of all your assignments you have to submit onto the site in the first few weeks of class.
