Official bitch about daily life in UL

What happens when your CoOp is split? Do you do two reports and put them together, like chapters or do you throw both in together so the front page would be like;
Name of employer: Name 1, Name 2 ?

I did split, I think I did 2 cover pages.. But they told me to write the report as one.. paragraph about company A and then company B for each section.. all in one report..

If one was longer than another they told me concentrate on the main one.

I wrote mine as one. Did 3/4 of my time in one place so that's how much I wrote for it.

So I'd have the heading "strucrure " and then under that I had a subheading for company A and another subheading for company B.

I did mine in the one company but I changed to a very different Job after a month so I just wrote about each in different sections

Cheers guys! One more question, if you leave the first CoOp on bad terms, do you need to get a signature?

Believe me when you have to pay for it you'll know! They won't let you away without paying for it anyway! TBH, I forget the exact procedure and dates but they definitely send out something in the post similar to the thing for paying fees. You know, with a bank giro and instructions for paying online etc.

Can you register for repeats online?

I have optional repeats and it would be handy to just do it online but can't find where to do it?

Is an extra floor part package with the new book sorting system?
Maybe even some picnic benches out front for the finer days..

Another CoOp question for ye; has anyone on other courses gotten a visitor from the college? None of our course have ( which isn't great because a lot of us have had problems and couldn't get through to the office to sort them), and since we could technically finish by now if started in January, just wondering if they just weren't sent out.

Mostly its a phone call, only hear of one or two guys getting a visit. If nobody from your department calls or visits you can't be held accountable.

Our course director called out to us, though we're based in Limerick so it wasn't exactly that much of a journey. :P

The name of your visitor should be on your student portal, so if you wanted you could whip them a quick email.

Im on COOP at the moment and i was assigned a visitor in April i found his name on the student portal and then contacted him myself to organise a visit date and time.

If you dont mind me asking, what course are you doing?

I had a visitor come and go, all 3 UL students on my placement have.

I got nobody for mine at all. We were all abroad so I think a few got actual visitors and then most people just got a phone call. I didn't even get a phone call and it was fine. It's not your fault if nobody checks in on you but like someone suggested, you can email the person that's meant to do it to find out what the story is.

Cheers guys, its not so much getting a visitor but what to put on the cover of the report for me. I just know some people could have done with a visitor, just as a way to contact the college.

Copper_pipe

I'm 99.9% sure I registered for repeats last week. I don't have any option to register for them now so does that mean I already have registered?
