Feedback and Complaints Process
ABS welcomes feedback from students. Student feedback can be provided directly to the facilitators, the Head of School, ABS or when feedback forms are issued by facilitators at the end of a unit or the full program.
You can complain to ABS about your learning experience and teaching and learning environment. This might include dissatisfaction with a process or procedure, course content, interactions with staff, facilities or programs.
ABS considers complaints to be serious and urgent matters.
How to make a complaint
The first step of the complaints process is to attempt where possible to resolve a complaint via informal resolution with the relevant person(s) (e.g., a facilitator, another student) or section/department (e.g., Student Support) involved
Contact your faculty if your complaint relates to:
- assessment or final marks
- fee remission
- academic penalties
- misconduct matters
For teaching and learning concerns, first contact your subject or course coordinator, or the relevant academic officer. For other matters, contact Student Support.
Complaints should be made as soon as possible.
If the complaint is not resolved informally, students may lodge a formal complaint in writing. Please see the Student Grievances and Complaints Policy and Procedure for further information on how to lodge a complaint and for details on the ABS complaint resolution process.
Staff can lodge a complaint by referring to the Student Complaints and Appeals Policy and Procedure.
