Summary of Changes from Previous Version

The Student Conduct Senior Officer Procedure provides the rules for Senior Officers in managing general and academic potential student misconduct reports, investigations and the conduct of Senior Officers hearings and determinations. It requires that a Senior Officer is responsible for acting fairly and reasonably in all circumstances, ensuring that all parties relating to a matter are informed of the requirements of the Student Conduct Policy and related procedures, making arrangements for hearings and interviews, and making determinations on all matters relating to a hearing.

Senior Officers are responsible for resolving a matter informally in the first instance where possible, redirecting a matter to a specialised subject matter expert where necessary, requesting or undertaking an investigation, convening a hearing and making subsequent findings, and referring more serious or complex matters to the Student Conduct Board.
