Full origin of registration →Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between registration and enrolment?
Registration is the administrative act of getting your details onto a list, and it often has to be renewed. Enrolment usually means becoming a full member of a course, school or programme, and it tends to follow registration rather than replace it.
Does registration mean the same thing as a licence?
No. Registration records that something exists and who owns or holds it, while a licence grants permission to do something. A car has a registration; the driver has a licence.
