Student Registration- Create Your Agreements/Policies

In this article, you’ll learn how to create agreements and policies for your registration process. Agreements are electronic documents, terms, or conditions that parents, guardians, or students must sign before completing registration. Policies, on the other hand, are terms and conditions that users can review at their convenience and do not require a signature.

Locating Agreements or Policy

1. Login to ArbiterRegistration.
2. Select Programs.
3. Find the program you want to add an agreement or policy to and select Edit.

4. Click 5 Agreements on the timeline. 
5. Click Create New Agreement or Policy.

Setting Up a New Agreement or Policy

Agreement

After clicking Create New Agreement or Policy, a popup box will display. Selecting Agreement will allow you to do the following:

• Title: Give your new agreement a title.
• Details: Terms and conditions of the agreement should be entered here. 
• Agreement required: This will ensure that your registrants do not proceed with registration until they have fully agreed to the terms and conditions. Leaving this box unchecked will give your registrants the options to agree or disagree to the terms and conditions. 
• First Signature: Indicate if you want the first signature of the agreement to be someone 18 years of age or older, or a Parent/Guardian.
• Second Signature: Indicate if you want a second signature of the agreement to be someone 18 years of age or older, Parent/Guardian, Student, or Participant. 
• Validate Signature(s): When this option is selected, ArbiterRegistration ensures that the First Signature matches the First Parent or Guardian listed in the registration. If a Second Signature is required—whether it is from a Parent/Guardian, Student, or Participant—ArbiterRegistration requires the person signing to type their name exactly as it appears in their respective signature boxes.

If the name entered in the signature box does not match the name listed in the registration for the corresponding entity, ArbiterRegistration will not accept the submission. This ensures that all signatures are correctly matched to the respective individuals who are responsible in signing.

Policy

A policy does not require a signature. When creating a registration, you can use the Policy section to share information about institutional policies that registrants should review and understand. This section only requires a Title and Details to outline the policy you want to highlight for your registrants.

Agreement or Policy Examples

Agreement Required Box

1. Check or uncheck Agreement required.
2. Click Save.

If you check the Agreement Required box, registrants will see the agreements with the option to select only "Yes, I agree."

If you uncheck the Agreement Required box, registrants will see two options: "Yes, I agree," or "No, I do not agree."

Policies

Once you’ve created your institution’s policies, registrants will see them displayed at the top of the Agreements section during registration. When registrants click on the policy title, a popup box will appear, allowing them to review the policies.
