How we earn trust

Editorial Policy

NOUN Compass publishes practical student help, checks important details carefully, and fixes mistakes when we find them.

Document statusCurrentLast updated 14 June 2026

People-first content

Every guide must help a real student finish a real task. We publish original explanations, screenshots, tools, and examples instead of scraped copy or padded filler.

How we check guides

Writers review current NOUN pages and student-facing systems when they are available, then explain the task in plain language. When a detail can change by student, session, or programme, we say so plainly and point readers back to the exact NOUN page that should settle the final answer.

Review process

Every operational guide has an author, assigned reviewer, source note, and tracked editorial disposition. A last-checked date is shown only after a current source review has been recorded; a missing date means the recheck is still pending.

Commercial independence

Ads and partnerships do not decide our recommendations. Sponsored material, if introduced, will be labelled clearly, and site actions must never be disguised as something else.

Updates and corrections

High-impact guides about fees, admissions, registration, deadlines, and course materials are checked first when something changes. Readers can report issues through our contact page or email support@nouncompass.me.
