Reminder: Digital Course Outlines (DCOs)

Digital Course Outlines provide new and existing students with detailed and timely information to assist in their selection of courses.

From Semester Two 2025, staff will use the new Curriculum Management System (CMS) to edit their Digital Course Outlines. Course directors are asked to review their learning outcomes to align with the Graduate profile, also ideally reviewing their assessments due to the emergence of generative AI. We invite you to review your DCOs to ensure the correct details are relevant and submit them for review.

Suggested timeframe:

By 31 October 2025: Course directors to review content and submit to reviewers/approvers.

3 – 7 November 2025: Reviewers/approvers to accept for publishing or return with comments.

10 – 21 November 2025: Any final approvals to be submitted for publishing.

Support

Extra support will be available soon. In the meantime, you can email the project team with your questions; they are available to help until the end of 2025.

If you are facing technical issues with the CMS platform, please raise a ticket with Staff Service Centre on ext. 86000 or +64 9 923 6000 or log a ticket on the staff portal.

Note: Some course outline fields (e.g., course title, course prescription, points, pre-requisites etc.) is not editable because they must go through an amendment process since they are published to the University Calendar. If you notice incorrect information within your course outline that requires updating, to have the information changed, please follow the amendment process described by the Academic Programmes Office.
