Active

This status is automatically set by the system when you confirm that a student has signed their EMA Learning Agreement.

If you need to discontinue an EMA Learning Agreement, the method to use for this depends on the student’s circumstances.

Suspended

If a student is absent from your Learning Centre for a longer period and you're not sure if the absence will be permanent, you should suspend the EMA Learning Agreement. This allows you to reactivate it if the student returns.

Even if it seems that the student will not return, it is sometimes best to suspend them. Avoid using the Stop function, as the suspension can be reversed if you’ve made an error or the student changes their mind.

You will not have to make attendance confirmations for students whose EMA Learning Agreements have been suspended until you reactivate them.

Stopped

If a student leaves your Learning Centre permanently, you must stop their EMA Learning Agreement. This places a stop on the student’s record and you will not need to make any more attendance confirmations.

You should only stop an EMA Learning Agreement if you have confirmation that the student will not return.

You should not use the View applications screen of the Learning Centre Portal to remove students who have had an active EMA Agreement during the academic year. You should stop their EMA Learning Agreement instead.
