Short name | ITTCOMDATE | ||||||||||||
Description |
This field indicates the date the student commenced their ITT course. Where completed, the start date of ITT course may be different to the date recorded within the Student.COMDATE field (which records the start date of the student instance and not the ITT course). | ||||||||||||
Applicable to | England | ||||||||||||
Coverage | All students where Student.COMDATE field does not record the date on which they commenced their ITT course. | ||||||||||||
Notes |
This field is optional and therefore where Student.COMDATE is also the date on which the student commenced their ITT course, there is no requirement to return it. If easier, HEIs can default ITTCOMDATE with the value of Student.COMDATE. Please note the field will become mandatory for 2011/12. The introduction of this field should ensure that the Student.COMDATE is not incorrectly changed for students transferring within the same student instance. | ||||||||||||
Examples |
