7. Recommendations
The new units for GCE/GCSE Technology & Design will be available for Exams Officers to set up registrations from November 2018.
Ensure any consortium arrangements have been registered with CCEA. This is to allow the correct candidates to be displayed onscreen.
Ensure all candidates are entered correctly and on time so you can access their eCRS.
Allow adequate time to complete and submit the eCRS in advance of the stated deadline.
