Developers

MIAP has been set up to enable educational organisations to securely share data about learners and providers.

The project has devised common data definitions, a set of unique identifiers, and a means of sharing data:

• a web-based service interface
• a role-based data access model

To support Developers integrating Management Information Systems (MIS) with the Learner Registration Service (LRS), MIAP has created a software toolkit - the Developers Guide.

Developers need to register to gain access to the latest version of web services.You will need to complete and return a copy of the Developer Register Entry form before we can provide you with access to the Developers Pack. 

Once an application is received developers should receive a link, username and password within 48 hours to access the Developers’ Pack on the secure site. The pack includes the following information: MIAP Learner Registration Service web services interface specification; schemas and WDSL; a developer’s guide on web services development; a test period calendar for developers; web services test instructions and forms for each stage of development.

Supporting documents can be found in the Document Library, or by using the links below:

• The MIAP Batch File Interface Guide
  This provides all the information required to create a xml or csv batch file for uploading Learner details to the LRS.
• The MIAP Web Services Interface Introduction
  This explains how to integrate web services with your current system to provide a 'real time' solution.

If you have already registered and have any other questions, please read the FAQs.
