access rights to add and remove members from the 1) membership and
leadership positions and 2) Major Activities. The only thing you
cannot do is create Major Activities which only your teachers-in-
charge can do. For missing Major Activities, Chairpersons need to
refer to teacher-in-charge to create for you.

1) Check that there are no duplications of the same event in a
different name, the year of the activity is correct. Any typo
errors should be indicated and highlighted to Chairpersons. It is
not required to have the major activity with its year e.g. 24th
Asian Youth Championships, as these activities will rolled over to
subsequent years.

2) For activities under Academic/Department, please refer to
respective teacher-in-charge of the activity.

3) For Addition or Removal, please refer to your Chairperson or
Secretary

5) For new major activities refer first to your Chairperson. If

office on Tuesday 25th September. DO NOT LEAVE ANY PAPER or YOUR
CCA CERTIFICATE on my table. I will not entertain any amendments
unless you come personally to see me. Bring evidence in photocopies
such certicates, registration forms, letters from external
organisations if you have.

9) For uniform groups, note that only your leadership position
will be recorded in the CCA certificates. Attach your letters
indicating your specific involvements endorsed by your Uniform Group
Teachers to your Certificate when you need them.

11) For sports girls and boys, West Zone and National Colours for
both 2006 and 2007 are in the process of updating in the ISP

12) The ISP system can now accomodate 5th to 20th positions for
achievements. Refer to Chairperson to add that in for you.
