Why do I need to book?
If the course you are looking for combines online and face-to-face learning, you may need to make a booking for both the online element and for the face-to-face element. You will find information about this in the online module.
Data
A record may be made when you join an online module. This record may hold details of name, department, date started, date completed and evaluation data.
Where data is collected, the reasons and scope of the record will be outlined on the welcome page.
This information may be used to:
- provide training history records for course participants
- produce reports of participation for departments/faculties
- produce statistical reports of activity
