- Complete the Induction 2025 module
- Complete the Declaration of Concordance form and Placement Declaration form
- Read the degree programme and Stage 1 handbooks
Use the information in these documents throughout the year when you need some guidance as to what to do. Of course, it cannot hope to cover every eventuality, so be prepared to ask someone when you require help or information.
