Addendum forms: Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences programmes

AUT has legal obligations in relation to students engaging with the public during their studies. These apply to programmes which include placements, particularly those educating students in disciplines covered by the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act (2003) and/or the Vulnerable Children’s Act (2014), as well as students whose learning may involve practice in which they may potentially come into contact with children.
