We’d therefore advise you to start adding HECoS codes to your courses as soon as possible. Please take this opportunity to test how to assign them in our test, training, and development environment.
This change in functionality has been developed by HESA, to replace the JACS system, and will require a cross-provider approach, working alongside colleagues in areas such as planning, student records, and faculty members, to ensure successful implementation. If you want more information about HECoS, and how this is going to affect your 2019 courses, take a look at the resources below.
- We hosted a webinar with HESA to discuss the change, and provide best practice guidelines.
- We’ve developed frequently asked questions to give you more information on the background and context of this change.
- HESA has developed a web page to explain why the changes are being implemented, and an implementation guide covering the key principles of HECoS allocation.
