For example, cl 01 and sn 11 will look like (WK0111) - that is WK, cl, and sn. The AUGMENT UICs are identified as (50) therefore; as you use AUGMENT units you must inform the students to ADD (50) to their sn. For example: UIC, WD 01 01 – student number +50 rule will look will look like this: WD 01 51 cl sn cl sn

WD 01 11 - student number +50 rule will look like this: WD 01 61 cl sn cl sn
