Student Handbook

7.5 Change of Correspondence Address and Personal Data

You must inform the Institute whenever your address and other personal data have been
changed. Records in the Student Register will be updated accordingly when the Institute
receives your written notification of changes.

Your change of address will not be acknowledged. The first item of mail which you receive at
your new address will confirm that the change has been made. You should allow up to four
weeks for a change of address to be implemented. You must make arrangements to re-direct
your mail during this period.

The Institute has also provided internet facilities to allow online amendment by registered
students. You can view, amend and inform the Institute of any changes in your personal data
particulars via the Institute's website (Members' area > Student zone (QP) > My Account >
Online Student Record Amendment).

The Institute wishes to use the internet as the most direct channel of communication with
students. Compared to postal delivery, communication by email is fast, economical and
effective. Please help the Institute to maintain regular contacts with students by providing the
Student Section with an up-to-date email address. You can update your email address in the
institute's website or each time you submit your Module Enrolment or by fax.
