| Type | field |
| Short name | HESACOURSEID |
| Description |
This fields records a HESA course ID to be linked to the KISCourse. |
| Applicable to | England Northern Ireland Scotland Wales |
| Coverage | All HESACourses. |
| Notes |
This field must contain a valid Course.COURSEID from the HESA Student record or Student Alternative record for the HESACourse.HESAYEAR. Validation will check that the HESACourse.HESACOURSEID recorded in this field exists in the C18051, C19051 and C20051 Student and C18054, C19054 and C20054 Student Alternative records. The same HESACourseID can be linked to multiple KIS courses and validation will not prevent this. HESACourse.HESACOURSEID and ILRAims.ILRAIMID should only be used to link to courses that are the embodiment, on the HESA/ILR records, of the course for which a Unistats return is being produced. It would be misleading to applicants if other courses were included, as this could lead to a belief that they were viewing course level data, when they were looking at data relating to a group of courses. |
