Section 5.4 Murdoch Conventions for Content Preparation

Section 5.4.11 CRICOS Provider Code Convention

In accord with Section 107 of the Education Services for Overseas Students Act 2000, the University’s CRICOS Provider Code and the University’s name shall display on University Content that is:

  • categorised as public relations or marketing material, or
  • categorised as information to prospective students about courses provided by Murdoch University.

For situations where it is unclear whether or not the Provider Code and University name should be displayed, it is recommended that the objectives of S107 of the Act be pursued and therefore these details should be included. For example: Content that includes information about service provided by the University for international students.

The Murdoch CRICOS Provider Code Convention to be practiced in the preparation of Content includes:

  • display of the University’s name
  • use of a CRICOS Provider Code statement
  • including a link to the DEST site for the University’s CRICOS entry.

CRICOS Provider Code Statement

The CRICOS Provider Code statement shall be displayed in a manner that enables an end-user to easily associate the name of the University with the Provider code and to readily access the details of Murdoch University’s entry in the Commonwealth Register of Institutions & Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS).

Document Information Footers

The metadata that accompanies Content subject to the requirement to display a CRICOS Provider Code shall include the use of document information footers or metadata popups accessed by a link on a page titled Page Information. The footer or popup display shall include a CRICOS Provider Code statement.

The CRICOS Provider Code statement shall:

  •  provide a link to the University’s entry in the Commonwealth Register of Institutions & Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS).

For example:
