Welcome Talofa lava, Kia orana, Malo e lelei, Fakaalofa lahi atu, Ni sa bula, Taloha ni, Kia ora. Welcome to UCOL, and congratulations on choosing to study towards a New Zealand Certificate in Exercise.

Please remember that for a full-time student the expected combined timetabled hours and additional study commitment is approximately 40 hours. Your lecturers will outline the assessment requirements as they introduce you to the programme. Take note of the times and set up your calendar/diary appropriately. To assist you in your planning you have been given an assessment schedule on Moodle which details your classroom schedule, independent learning expectations, assessment due dates and the achievable marks in percentages for each assessment. I would like to take this opportunity to wish you every success in your chosen course of study. Good Luck….. We look forward to celebrating your achievements with you at the end of the year.

Te Reo Māori
UCOL acknowledges the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi and endorses the right of its students to
use Te Reo Māori in assessments. If you are fluent in Te Reo and wish to be assessed in it, you should
inform your lecturers of this at the beginning of the programme. See Assessment in Te Reo Māori
Procedure.
Schedule of Assessment
A schedule of assessments will be given to you at the commencement of each year for every paper.
All the assessments will be preceded by the issuing of a ‘brief’, outlining the assessment requirements,
criteria for assessment, weighting to be used in the assessment, assessment methods and deadlines.
Conduct During Assessments
During your study, you are expected to observe and comply with the Academic Statute and all
programme regulations. Plagiarism or cheating is not tolerated. Academic dishonesty includes:
Copying from or inappropriate communicating with another person during an exam or
assessment
Possessing any unauthorised material during an exam or assessment
Submitting any work for assessment that is not your own and whose author has not been
acknowledged
Copying another’s work
Collaborating with others in the preparation of material, except where this is an assessment
requirement
Resubmitting work without prior written approval of the lecturer
Turnitin, or a similar programme, may be used to determine whether you have committed academic
dishonesty. See Conduct of Examinations and Assessments Procedure.
Part VIII of the Academic Statute outlines the disciplinary proceedings that apply should you breach
these rules.
Extensions
Extensions for an assessment can only be granted prior to the assessment due date in exceptional
circumstances. These circumstances may include:
Sickness – in which case a medical certificate must be presented to the lecturer.
Bereavement – in which case the lecturer must be informed as soon as possible.
Extenuating circumstances – these circumstances must be explained to the lecturer and proof
may be required.
An application for an extension must be submitted to your lecturer in writing using the Appendix 2 –
Request for Extension form at the back of this handbook. It can also be made in electronic form via
email which must include all the information required by the form.
You will receive notification of the outcome once your lecturer has reached a decision. Extensions will
be for seven (7) days only unless stated otherwise.
Where an extension has been granted, and the extension deadline has been met, no penalties will
apply. Your assessment will be marked and feedback provided in the same way as if the assessment
was submitted on the original date and time.
Faculty of Health and Sciences - Student Handbook 2021
NZ3563 New Zealand Certificate in Exercise Level 4 16Penalties for Late Submissions
The following conditions apply to all late submissions of assessments that do not have an approved
extension:
All assessment work received after the due date and time, and not subject to a lecturer-
approved extension, will attract a penalty.
The penalty for late submission is the deduction of 10% of the mark achieved for each day
beyond the due date for submission.
The penalty is applied for a maximum of five (5) days.
An assessment received after one week from the due date for submission will be returned
unmarked and a zero (0) grade will be entered.
No late submissions may be accepted after marked assessments have been returned to
students, unless it can be determined that there will be no advantage to the student
submitting the late assessment or disadvantage to students who have submitted the work on
time.
Reconsideration of Results
If you believe that your assessment has been incorrectly assessed, you can apply to your lecturer for
a reconsideration of result within five (5) days of the return of the assessment. You must apply in
writing using the Appendix 3 – Request for Reconsideration of Result form at the back of this handbook.
You may be charged a fee for this process.
Your result may be unchanged, raised or lowered following reconsideration. The reconsidered result
will be recorded as the final result. However, you still have the right to appeal this result in accordance
with the Academic Statute.
Resubmits and Resits
An application for a resubmit or resit must be submitted to your lecturer in writing using the Appendix
4 – Request for Resubmit/Resit form at the back of this handbook. It can also be made in electronic
form via email which must include all the information required by the form. You may be charged a
fee for this process.
Special Passes
If through illness, accident, bereavement or other exceptional circumstances beyond your control, you
are unable to complete an assessment or programme, you can apply for a Special Pass.
The four types of Special Passes are:
Aegrotat Pass: awarded when you are unable to present work for assessment at the time it is
due, you are unable to attend a test or examination, or your performance is seriously impaired
in a test or examination.
Conceded Pass: awarded when you have otherwise reached an acceptable standard in the
programme but have narrowly failed one course, thus affecting your ability to complete the
qualification.
Conditional Pass: awarded when you have marginally failed to meet the required academic
standard but in all other aspects have demonstrated an ability to meet it.
Restricted Pass: awarded when you have marginally failed to meet the required academic
standard for the course and, if awarded, does not qualify you to enrol in a subsequent
course/programme for which a pass in the original course is a pre-requisite.
If you are interested in requesting a Special Pass, contact your lecturer. Programme curriculum
regulations and other conditions may apply.
Faculty of Health and Sciences - Student Handbook 2021
NZ3563 New Zealand Certificate in Exercise Level 4 17Academic Appeals The academic appeals process is outlined in Part IX of the Academic Statute. Inability to Meet Programme Requirements Under certain circumstances, an individual study contract may be drawn up to encourage you to meet programme requirements. Any failure to meet this contract may result in you being asked to leave the programme. If you have a serious health problem or other personal circumstances that impact on your ability to meet programme requirements, please inform your Lecturer. Remember, if you are having difficulties with your programme there are ways UCOL can help you. If you do decide to withdraw, you must complete a Change of Circumstances Form.
