Notes |
This field uses a look up table for its list of valid entries, which sits outside the schema to enable maintenance without the need to re-issue a validation kit. View List of KISCourse.KISAIM valid entries (the link will be available in the next release), or download the KISCourse.KISAIM valid entries in CSV format. This field describes the type of qualification that will be obtained upon successful completion of the course. This field will be used in conjunction with KISCourse.TITLE (KISCourse.TITLEW for providers in Wales) and KISCourse.HONOURS to provide the KIS Course title. This will be displayed on the Discover Uni widget and on the Discover Uni website and widget. If the qualification aim of the Course results in an honours degree KISCourse.HONOURS should be coded with 1 'This is an honours (Hons) degree course'. The value returned in this field must match the valid entry listed in the look up table listed in the List of KIS Course Aims. If a KISCourse.KISAIM is not present in the list, providers should contact HESA, where the qualification will be added to the lookup table as part of a scheduled release. A qualification should not be an awarding body, such as BTEC. Example - Medieval History BA (Hons)
In selecting the appropriate KISCourse.KISAIM for the course please be reminded that postgraduate level courses and graduate entry courses (including stand-alone Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) part 2 or graduate entry medical courses) are excluded from the record. Full details of eligible courses can be found in the Coverage of the record. |
