Registration
Registration is
1. the process of enrolment on a programme of study or course.
2. becoming recognised as a legitimate professional in a regulated profession
Students register for programmes of study, also known as enrolment.
Students who undertake programmes of study designed as entry to a regulated profession usually then have to register with a professional or regulatory body or some other agency or government department that recognises their professional status. This may be automatic at the end of a professional programme or may require a period of observed practice before registration is completed.
Registration: The process in which students choose and enroll in courses to be taken during the academic year or in summer sessions.
The University of South Australia (2011) states:
Enrolled student: A student who has approved leave or load recorded on the student record system against a program, or on a single course basis, at the census date for at least one study period in an academic year.
Registration – Enrollment in a specific course(s), usually occurring at specified times during the year.
Course registration – The process of officially enrolling in a course; See “Course enrollment”
Course enrollment – The number of students formally in a course. Course enrollment data are influenced by registration periods, duration of course (semester, year-long, or flexible schedules for competency-based credits), drop/add periods and “count” dates that determine accuracy of number of students enrolled per course, completion and/or attrition rates.
Professional registration recognises your competence, commitment, skills and experience.
Professional registration is an important milestone for any engineer or technician. It establishes their proven knowledge, understanding and competence. In particular, registration shows your peers and employers that you have demonstrated a commitment to professional standards, and to developing and enhancing competence.
The IET is licensed by the Engineering Council [new window] to award the professional engineering qualifications defined in the UK Standard for Professional Engineering Competence (UK-SPEC).
Categories of registration: Chartered Engineer (CEng); Incorporated Engineer (IEng); Engineering Technician (EngTech); ICT Technician (ICTTech).
Professional registration establishes proven knowledge, understanding and competence.
The launch of Registered Science Technician and Registered Scientist alongside the established Chartered Scientist award creates a framework of professional registration across the science workforce.
Registration is awarded by Licensed Bodies, professional bodies of the Science Council and consists of scientific knowledge, competence and commitment to high standards of professionalism. Whilst an academic qualification demonstrates your achievement, professional registration captures your career development and on the job learning alongside any formal qualifications.
Types of Medical Registration: Under the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law Act 2009, there is a range of registration categories under which a doctor can practise medicine in Australia. Different categories apply to different types of registration.... Categories of medical registration are: General registration; Specialist registration; Provisional registration; Limited registration; Non-practising registration.
The Board can also grant student registration to medical students undertaking an approved program of study.
