This entity records information about students at the start of their Engagement. The fields within this entity should therefore not be updated based on any changes that happen during an Engagement as only the position on entry is recorded.


The EntryProfile must be returned in the first reference period in which an Engagement is returned. It does not need to be returned in subsequent reference periods however the EntryProfile can be included in subsequent reference periods if providers wish to include this is their file.


If the EntryProfile is returned again, all the EntryProfile information must be returned, including all EntryQualificationAwards. Any data that is missing from the EntryProfile when returned again will be viewed as a correction to previously incorrect data and the information will no longer be associated with the student.
