Keep the list of programmes
The Programmes list feeds the Programme of study drop-down that students and professionals pick from when they apply for indexing or add a qualification.
What you will learn
- Add a programme for one school or for every school
- Tie a programme to a profession and qualification type
- Turn off a programme that is no longer offered
When a student applies for indexing or a professional adds a qualification, they choose their programme from a drop-down instead of typing it. That keeps names the same everywhere, so reports count each programme once. A programme tied to a school is offered only for that school; one with no school is offered for every school.

What you will see
- On the forms, people see the programmes for the school they chose, plus the programmes for every school.
- If theirs isn’t listed, they choose Not in the list – type it and type the name. Add common ones here so fewer people need to type.
- A programme already used on records is turned off, not deleted, when you press Remove. Past records keep it.
