Code of Practice

The Code of Practice is a reference point on how we support our HE programmes and is designed to help us meet our responsibility for the assurance of academic standards and quality. The Code provides a framework to allow us to consider the effectiveness of our approach to the matters covered; it encourages consistency of approach; and is a transparent document allowing stakeholders to view our procedures. The Code is informed by the QAA Code of Practice, but is specific to the ifs School of Finance. 

It includes the the following chapters which can be accessed using the links below or by using the left hand menu.  A printable version of each chapter is also available via the option on the right hand side of this page.
