There are a number of different application procedures where this data could be collected. There are a few possible uses for gathering this data. These include verifying the student’s identity (for anti-fraud purposes, like when issuing a replacement testamur), facilitating two-way communications with the student about their course and the Learning Dev Academy (LDA)services available to them, and verifying the student’s eligibility for an Learning Dev Academy (LDA) scholarship.
