Define: Enrolment Form
An Enrolment Form is the document an individual completes to register for a scheme, program, or benefit referenced in a contract, such as a pension plan, insurance policy, training course, or membership arrangement. It captures personal details, elections, and consents, and its completion often triggers the start of the contractual relationship or coverage described in the agreement.

What Enrolment Form Means in a Contract
An Enrolment Form is the administrative document by which an individual formally signs up for a scheme, benefit, or program that is governed by an underlying contract. Rather than setting out substantive rights and obligations itself, the form operates as the mechanism that connects a person to those terms. Completing and submitting it is typically the act that binds the individual to the rules of the scheme, whether that scheme is an employee benefit, a pension arrangement, a professional membership, or a course of study.
In most agreements, the Enrolment Form is treated as a supporting instrument rather than the primary contract. The main agreement, policy document, or plan rules will describe the substantive terms, while the Enrolment Form is the practical vehicle for capturing an individual's identity, elections, and consent to those terms. Because of this, the form is frequently referenced within definitions clauses so that other provisions can rely on it without repeating its contents.
