11. What if something goes wrong during the course and I can't complete all the assignments?

It is not unusual for students to find that other aspects of their lives get in the way of studying. You should talk with your tutor or the study support section at your nearest Regional Centre as soon as you have a problem, to find out what options are available.

If you can't complete an assignment on time you should contact your tutor as it may be possible to get permission to submit an assignment late during the course.

If you have a problem concerning an exam, end of course assessment or residential school you should contact your nearest Regional Centre.
