Please read this booklet carefully, and keep it for future reference throughout the year. The information in this booklet has been updated and revised for 2016. Timetables and courses may be subject to change. Not all courses are offered every year or every semester and courses may not run if there are insufficient enrolments. From February 2016 to July 2016 two small changes are planned for the BBus, Management & Marketing majors. The handbook contains three sets of programme structures; one for new students commencing the BBus programme in February 2016, one for students who commenced the BBus programme in July 2015 and the other for continuing students who commenced prior to semester 2, 2015. For new students commencing in February 2016 the most significant change is less compulsory courses and more elective courses. Students will usually graduate under the regulations current at the time of their first enrolment in a programme of study. However no student can be disadvantaged by changes to the regulations. Continuing students who commenced the BBus prior to semester two 2015, particularly those who commenced over 5 years ago, should check with the Student Central team to ensure that you are consulting the correct regulations regarding the completion of your degree. Electives can be taken from other major or any Unitec degree: http://www.unitec.ac.nz/currentstudents/study-support/re-enrolment/extra-electives Unitec has used reasonable care to ensure that the information in this publication is accurate at the time of publication. However, to the extent permitted by law, Unitec is not liable for, and makes no warranties or representations as to such accuracy and may change or correct any such information without prior notice. Changes will be available on www.unitec.ac.nz and from Student Central. 3 Student Handbook Semester 1, 2016: BBus – GDipBus – DipProfAcc - GDipProfAcc CONTENTS Academic Calendar 2016

All courses in the Graduate Diploma in Business have been rewritten to align with Unitec’s recently developed ‘Living Curricula’ policy. The purpose of the Graduate Diploma in Business is to provide students, who have already graduated with a degree or have extensive business experience, the opportunity to pursue further or focussed study in business management at an undergraduate level. The programme provides students with a focussed programme in one of four discipline areas called endorsements. These endorsements have been chosen as they underpin well established practitioner career paths. Each chosen discipline area (endorsement) represents an area of strength from within the Department of Management and Marketing. The Graduate Diploma in Business has been designed with two likely pathways for graduates in mind. These are: a career pathway that could include promotion at work; and a pathway into further academic study. The most likely academic study to follow from the Graduate Diploma in Business is Unitec’s Post Graduate Diploma in Business. The Post Graduate Diploma in Business leads to the Master of Business. Potentially students could also pathway from the Graduate Diploma into the Bachelor of Business programme.

It involves undertaking relevant work in the workplace as part of their programme of learning. This is a key learning component of Unitec’s commitment to provide its students with real world learning. The student is able to: • Gain an understanding of workplace practice • Enhance work competencies • Make tangible connections between theory and practice • Acquire insight to assist with career choices • Obtain work experience and networks to enhance career prospects • Grow in self-awareness, maturity and confidence • Gain exposure to real world learning in an area related to their studies. The Industry Based Learning course enables final year Bachelor of Business students to apply their skills and experience in an external organisation or company and learn through a critical reflective process. The IBL course is a 30-credit course that requires approximately 220 hours of work in a host organisation over the period of a semester (generally, three days per week for 10 weeks).  Students must attend an IBL Provisional Enrolment Seminar the Semester BEFORE the intended IBL enrolment period. This workshop describes the workload, assessment and time commitment of this unique course, and provides exemption information. Failure to attend the workshop may result in the student being unable to enrol in the IBL course for the following semester. The Seminar time and dates will be announced on the BBus Moodle Programme site. • You must have a minimum of 285 credits, from the student’s intended major. • Students are advised to enrol in only two other courses at the same time as the 30 credit IBL course. Complete Provisional Enrolment Details & Placement Plan Forms Negotiate with an external Company or Organisation to complete the details for your IBL placement. Submit your Provisional Enrolment and completed Placement forms at least 2 weeks prior to your intended IBL enrolment semester which gives you time to find another placement if your first one is not approved. Enrolment occurs when both your application for Enrolment and Placement Plan have been approved. If the Company you submitted is not suitable, you will need to submit another Placement Plan stating an alternative Company. Confirmation of Enrolment will be sent by the IBL Coordinator via email to you, your Placement Supervisor & your Academic Supervisor. Attend all FIVE “Active” IBL Workshops which provide guidance and advice on how to maximise your learning experience and submit a successful portfolio. The compulsory workshops prepare you to achieve the learning outcomes of the course. Workshops are offered in the day and evening to accommodate part time students. Details of the dates and times of the workshop are provided on the BBus homepage on Moodle. 54 Student Handbook Semester 1, 2016: BBus – GDipBus – DipProfAcc - GDipProfAcc Attend the “Portfolio” Workshops which are held towards the end of your IBL Semester to receive feedback on your draft portfolio and your IBL experiences. Your portfolio is due for submission approximately a week after this workshop IBL ACADEMIC SUPERVISOR During your IBL semester, you will be allocated an academic supervisor. You will need to arrange a meeting between your Host Supervisor and your Academic Supervisor. The meeting will cover the Collaborative Assessment process and a Personal Learning agreement will be signed. At the end of your course, another meeting will be held to complete the Collaborative Assessment process and the results form a critical part of your final Portfolio. In addition you will submit a set of personal and professional Learning goals (PPLGs) and learning journals to your academic supervisor for feedback and analysis of your progress in your placement. Placement Students Placementstudents are expected to source and secure placements by liaising directly with organisations within their own local and corporate community. Students are required to liaise with the Host organisations through CV / Resume submissions in order to secure face-to-face interviews with the Host organisations. The student must obtain a minimum of 220 hours work experience in either a part-time or full-time capacity. Any queries can be forwarded to ibl@unitec.ac.nz. NB: Students can apply for exemption from the 30-credit IBL to the 15-credit IBL course on the basis of: • Current ongoing employment in work relevant to the student’s subject major or • Degree completion requirements. During pre-enrolment these students who are requesting 15 credit IBL are required to make an appointment with the BBus Program Leaders either Maura Kempin or Ken Newlands and supply the following at the meeting: • This completed and signed (by the student) application form. If applying due to current employment in student’s major, then the following is required: • A letter from the student’s current employer (on company letter-head paper) confirming that the student is employed and performing duties relevant to the student’s major. • Remember you need to have an additional 15 credit course to make up the 30 credits. 55 Student Handbook Semester 1, 2016: BBus – GDipBus – DipProfAcc - GDipProfAcc CREDIT RECOGNITION Credit Recognition If your programme includes a course that is very similar to one you have already successfully completed as part of a different programme, you may be able to have these credits recognised. The Faculty will carefully check and compare the content and level of both courses to determine whether a cross-credit can be granted. Students have the opportunity to cross credit approved courses successfully completed from the New Zealand Diploma in Business, as well as courses successfully completed from other Tertiary Institutions in New Zealand and Overseas. Evidence will need to be supplied with cross credit applications, such as your academic transcript and syllabus material. Credit Transfer will be awarded for equivalent study, at the same or a higher level in the context of another programme. Guidelines There are two types of credit transfer or credit recognition from another qualification into BBus: Specified: Where there is direct equivalence of the learning outcomes of a completed course and a course in the degree. Specified credit transfers are shown in the Credit Tables available upon request from your ProgrammeAdministrator. OR: Unspecified: Where the previous study has taken place in a programme with a similar philosophy but there is no exact match in the programme’s courses. Unspecified cross credits will be awarded at the discretion of and at a level decided by the Programme Committee. These may be used in place of your elective courses. The Programme Committee may in exceptional circumstances, award cross credits for successful study that took place more than five years prior to the date of first enrolment in the degree. Students will need to submit an application form for Credit Recognition/Cross Credits at Student Central from study at Unitec or other Tertiary Institutions in NZ or Overseas. You will need to submit with your application: 1. Verified true copies of your academic record stating grades achieved and/or NZQA record of learning. 2. Prescription course outline/full course descriptor for each course you wish to transfer credit from. And where applicable: 3. Verified and translated to English, a true copy of degree/diploma certificate for completed qualifications. 4. If any of the cross credits you are applying for come from institutions other than Unitec, you must make payment of NZ$105.00 (inclusive of GST). This fee does not need to be paid by international students. Please attach the invoice and receipt with your application. Your application cannot be processed unless payment is made and is completed in full Copies of Unitec course outlines can be provided on request. 56 Student Handbook Semester 1, 2016: BBus – GDipBus – DipProfAcc - GDipProfAcc ASSESSMENT OF PRIOR LEARNING (APL) APL is the broad term being used at Unitec for any process that evaluates Informal and Non-formal learning in terms of a Formal learning framework (courses, programmes and qualifications). APL is a process through which individuals seek academic credit for relevant ‘skills and knowledge’ they have already acquired. Relevant learning can arise from life experience, formal or informal work experience, and/or formal and informal education or training which may or may not have been assessed. Advice Regarding Credit Recognition and APL Approvals You will be advised in writing of the success or otherwise of your application. You may be given preliminary confirmation of the result of your application within a short time frame; but the outcome of your application will only be finalised when the Programme Committee or its delegate has given approval. 57 Student Handbook Semester 1, 2016: BBus – GDipBus – DipProfAcc - GDipProfAcc New Zealand Diploma in Business Bachelor of Business Course Credits Course Credits 469 Academic Skills 20 ACTY5000 Academic Skills for Business 15 B Required in 469 Academic Skills for Business 500 Accounting Principles 20 ACTY5200 Accounting for Business 15 501 Accounting Practice 20 ACTY5206 Accounting Applications 15 510 Introduction to Commercial Law 20 ACTY5320 Law of Business Obligations 15 520 Economic Principles 20 ACTY5270 Economic Principles 15 530 Organisation and Management 20 BSNS5390 Managing in Organisations 15 541 Fundamentals of Marketing 20 BSNS5340 Marketing Fundamentals 15 550 Business Computing 20 ACTY5230 Information Systems & Applications 15 560 Business Communication 20 Level 5 unspecified credit recognition 15 570 Introduction to Banking & Financial Services 20 Level 5 unspecified credit recognition 15 601 Financial Accounting 20 ACTY6201 Financial Accounting 15 602 Management Accounting 20 ACTY6212 Management Accounting 15 603 Business Finance 20 ACTY5290 Principles of Managerial Finance 15 606 Taxation 20 ACTY6210 Taxation 15 630 Leadership 20 BSNS6730 Leadership 15 631 Strategic Small Business Management 20 Level 6 unspecified credit recognition ** 15 632 Operations Management 20 BSNS5350 Business Process Management 15 633 Human Resource Management 20 BSNS5341Human Resource Management 15 635 Employment Relations 20 BSNS6343 Employment Relations and Legislation 15 636 Applied Management 20 Level 6 unspecified credit recognition ** 15 650 Applied Computing 20 Level 6 unspecified credit recognition ** 15 Any Level 6 course not used 20 Level 6 unspecified credit recognition ** 15 Notes: ** Where a 600 level NZDipBus course is not equivalent to a BBus course (refer to above schedule) an elective can be given.

Only when a student’s own SAC or own personal grade is being discussed should the Chair ask the student to leave the room - this is just the same as for any other Programme Committee member with a direct conflict of interest. 60 Student Handbook Semester 1, 2016: BBus – GDipBus – DipProfAcc - GDipProfAcc ASSESSMENTS/ASSIGNMENTS/EXAMS During your course you will have a number of assessments. You will be expected to turn in high quality work, of the same standard that will be expected of you in a work situation. All assessment work for this programme must be each student’s own original work unless group projects are specifically designated by the Lecturer. Marked assignments not collected by four weeks into the following semester will be disposed of. All BSNS courses assessments are compulsory, i.e. students must complete all the assessments for the course and if they fail to do so they will receive a DNC grade. Any course which has a final exam is a compulsory assessment item. Calculation of Grades a) Where a course contains a final examination as part of its assessment a student must obtain a mark of at least 40% in that final examination in order to achieve a passing grade for that course. b) Course grades, other than Industry based learning, will be determined by the mathematical aggregation of weighted assessment marks. Grades Percentage Result A+ 90-100 Pass A 85-89 Pass A- 80-84 Pass B+ 75-79 Pass B 70-74 Pass B- 65-69 Pass C+ 60-64 Pass C 55-59 Pass C- 50-54 Pass D 40-49 Fail E 0-39 Fail Assistance to Students Students themselves can be an excellent resource to assist the learning of fellow students, but there are issues that arise in assessments that relate to the type and amount of assistance given by one student to another. It is important to recognise what types of assistance are beneficial to another’s learning and are acceptable in an assessment. Beneficial Assistance • StudyGroups • Discussion • Sharing reading material Unacceptable Assistance • Working together on one copy of the assessment and submitting it as own work • Giving another student your work • Copying someone else’s work. This includes work done by someone not on the course • Changing or correcting another student’s work • Copying from books, Internet etc. and submitting it as your own work 61 Student Handbook Semester 1, 2016: BBus – GDipBus – DipProfAcc - GDipProfAcc Acknowledgement of Sources Referencing is an important part of all academic work. Sources of information should be acknowledged for the following reasons: • To distinguish between your ideas and someone else’s. • To show readers the range and quality of your reading. • To direct readers to the sources used, if they want further information. Failure to acknowledge a source of information, or using other people’s ideas as your own, is called plagiarism, and is a seriousform of academic dishonesty. Use APA referencing style in your assignments. We suggest you refer to the library resources for APA referencing. Materialsin Tests/ Exams Use of Textbooks / Written Materials in Tests and Exams You will be advised by each Course Co-ordinator of which statutes, text books, notes or other written materials that may be taken into the Assessment Tests and Final Examination. Where the use of such books or materials is permitted there should be no pen or pencil markings of any kind, but the proper use of highlighting with a highlighting pen is acceptable. Any unauthorised material or marking (e.g., writing, extra pages, markers, numbering, arrows, asterisks etc), will be treated as evidence of cheating and will be acted upon and the text book or statute or written materials confiscated and not replaced. Use of Dictionariesin Tests and Examinations: Unless otherwise advised, students may take into a test or examination a copy of either: Collins Pocket English Dictionary OR Oxford Pocket English Dictionary. No dictionary taken into a test or examination may be marked in any way other than with the student's name. This means that there should be no writing, high-lighting or underlining in the dictionary. At the start of the test or examination concerned dictionaries will be checked and may be confiscated from a student for the duration of the test or examination if any marking is found. In circumstances where marking found in a dictionary gives rise to a suspicion of cheating, disciplinary proceedings may follow. Restrictions on Entry to Examination Room: No students arriving late for a test or examination will be permitted to enter the test/examination room later than one hour after candidates have begun writing the test/examination (in the case of a 2 hour test or examination), or 45 minutes after candidates have begun writing (in the case of a 1.5 hour test or examination). Students who continue writing after the “STOP WRITING” instruction will have their marks reduced by 5% of the exam marks. Availability of Marked Assessments Students shall be entitled to the return of all written work (or a copy thereof) submitted for formal assessment, and to be given access to a copy of the marking schedule used to mark the assessment. Marked work will only be retained until 4 weeks into the following semester. Original 62 Student Handbook Semester 1, 2016: BBus – GDipBus – DipProfAcc - GDipProfAcc examination scripts are available from Building 170 to students free of charge after grades are approved by the Programme Committee, or copies are available at cost at the end of the academic year. For computer-based examinations a detailed marking schedule only will be provided. If a student uplifts the original examination she/he forgoes the right to apply for a recount of the script or an appeal against the grade. Recount of Final Examinations A recount of a final examination will confirm that all questions have been marked and that the marks correctly add to the total mark for that script. A recount may lead to no change or to either a raising or lowering of the grade. The procedure for having a particular final examination recounted shall be as follows: (a) A written application for recounts, together with the prescribed fee, must be received by the Exam supervisor within 15 working days of the mailing of results and prior to the student uplifting his/her originalscript; (b) The Programme Leader shall arrange for a recount of the marks; (c) The Programme Committee shall confirm the outcome of the recount and advise the student in writing within 5 working days of the confirmation. Assessment – General 1) If you think you need an extension due to any circumstances which are out of your control, please talk to the lecturer about Special Assessment Circumstances (SAC). Please see next section about SAC and how to apply for it. 2) Assessment feedback will focus on the overall major issues of content, argument, style and presentation. If you disagree with your grade, you are welcome to come and talk to us. There is also an Appeals Process at Unitec if you are not happy with a final grade.
