ASQRC Plan CM1 Changes 10 February 2011
DECISION
Proposal of additional delivery mode – Distance Learning (DL)
Significant demand for the pathway has been identified by Higher
Skills@Work, the DL mode will provide more flexibility and distributed
learning for students
Students will be recruited by HS@W (counted as additional ASNs) over
and above the capped numbers
Students already registered on the pathway will not be impacted
DL mode will be available to students starting from March 2011
With effect from March 2011
Approved
Proposal of additional delivery site – Cambridge
The proposal is a Higher Skills@Work initiative
The pathway is being marketed across Norfolk, Suffolk,
Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, for practical reasons
Cambridge will provide a more suitable venue for the initial cohort
The Cambridge delivery site will benefit recruitment and the student
experience
This is a new pathway so no transitional arrangements are required
With effect from March 2011
Approved
Reinstatement for franchise delivery only at Kolej PTPL Penang, KBU
International College, and the School of Accounting and Management
In the 2010 AIBS Undergraduate Review the pathway was archived
due to low recruitment but allowed to continue for the one student
registered on the pathway at Chelmsford, the pathway was slightly
amended at the Curriculum Review
Although the pathway has been unattractive at core Anglia Ruskin
University it remains attractive at three international partners who are
currently delivering the pathway on the old curriculum structure but
wish to deliver the pathway under the new curriculum arrangements
Transitional arrangements have already been made for existing
students
With effect from September 2011
Approved

Approved
Change of pathway title
New pathway title
Mental Health
The pathway title was changed in October 2010 at the request of
regional stakeholders however it has not been possible to market it
effectively as a ‘combined’ award, the title therefore needs to return to
its original validated title of: BSc (Hons) Mental Health
Current students not impacted, new award commencing in January
2011
With effect from January 2011
