5.5 STUDENT REGISTRATION<br />

All students are registered with the CILT in the month we receive payment. A copy of the<br />

registration is stored in the individual student’s folder and is also forwarded to the CILT along<br />

with the purchase order; information is double checked against the purchase order.<br />

5.6 CLAIMS FOR CERTIFICATION<br />

A student cannot be claimed for certification until all tasks have been completed; a check of this<br />

is part of our completion process. A student portfolio is not complete until all Candidate<br />

Assessment Records have been completed and submitted by an Assessor. A final check is the<br />

Portfolio Check List (PCL) signed by an assessor and Internal Verifier.<br />

5.7 STUDENT MANAGEMENT<br />

All students are registered on LLA’s CRM system; details include name, DOB, Organisation,<br />

email address and contact numbers. The CILT receives identical information and issues an<br />

identification number. The actual student number is issued upon Course payment. This system<br />

ensures the correct identification of students and if applicable the corresponding Organisations.<br />

All data is protected under the Data Protection Act 1998.<br />

6. HEALTH & SAFETY<br />

6.1 USE OF IT<br />

Your studies require use of VDU/DSEs/Display Screen Equipment. The H&S Executive has<br />

issued guidelines for people who work with VDU/DSEs/DSEs. Some useful extracts are<br />

available below and for further information please visit http://www.hse.gov.uk<br />

GET COMFORTABLE<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Adjust your chair and VDU/DSE to find the most comfortable position for your work. As<br />

a broad guide, your forearms should be approximately horizontal and your eyes the<br />

same height as the top of the VDU/DSE<br />

Make sure you have enough space to take whatever documents or other equipment you<br />

need<br />

Try different arrangements of keyboard, screen, mouse and documents to find the<br />

best arrangement for you. A document holder may help you avoid awkward neck and<br />

eye movements.<br />

Arrange your desk and VDU/DSE to avoid glare, or bright reflections on the screen. This<br />

will be easiest if neither you nor the screen is directly facing windows or bright lights.<br />

Adjust curtains or blinds to prevent unwanted light.<br />
