Notes

Only part-time courses (KISCourse.KISMODE = 2) can be returned as 2 ‘Course is optionally available through distance learning’. Where a full-time course is available both through distance learning and other than by distance learning, this would be considered two distinct courses and two KISCourses must be returned.

This field is required for all KISCourses.

If a HESACourse or ILRAims entity is also returned, this field will be checked against the course associated with HESACourse.HESACOURSEID or ILRAims.ILRAIMID.
