1. Mitigation of APK timetable risks
Prevent conflicting information in the Lecturing Timetables (LTTs) of the APK campus – i.e. CELCAT LTT Database vs Official Timetable Documents vs Integrator V4 (INT V4) LTT records and C/P/T Group setups – all to correspond 100%. Prevent conflicting information in the APK FSAO (exam) timetable (TT) – i.e. UJ FSAO TT Master file vs Official APK Timetable Document – too correspond 100%. Ensure the correct and timely implementation of UTC approved LTT changes. Ensure the timely publication of timetables.

Master document to be finalised and published by late November of the current year. All records to be signed off by employee and the three TTD Supervisors.
