Our role alongside institutions

Role and responsibility

CAFIA Access complements existing institutional mandates by helping people discover services, understand requirements, prepare their information and reach the appropriate institution. Decisions, approvals and formal responsibilities remain with the responsible organisation.

Public governance principles

These principles describe how CAFIA Access handles public information and institutional contact. They are working principles for the pilot, not a signed institutional agreement.

Neutrality: Product and programme ordering is not determined by sponsorship.
Verification: Institutional submissions will be reviewed before public information is changed.
Mandates: Financing, regulatory, licensing and programme admission decisions rest with the responsible institution.
Consent: Personal information is shared only through an agreed pathway and with appropriate user permission.
Source transparency: Public records should show their source, verification status and last-checked date.
Correction: Institutions may request corrections or provide updated public information.
Insights: Any institutional insight sharing will use anonymised and appropriately aggregated information.
