Accepting your certificate
As you reach the stage your name will be checked before it is announced. Once announced, walk across the stage to the Chancellor to receive your certificate. The ceremony photographer will be positioned in front of the stage to take a photo of the presentation. Following this you will then continue across the stage where an usher will direct you back to the graduand seating area.
After the ceremony
To make your night run more smoothly, arrange in advance where you will meet your guests after the ceremony. Waiting at the exits can cause congestion.
Studio and Stage Photography
Photographers will be available before and after the ceremony for studio portraits. A range of photo package options are available for you to choose from and can be viewed at Werkz Photography. Further information will also be provided at your regalia collection session.
