Mapping Process CPC UNIT 1 UNIT 2 UNIT 3 UNIT 4 .

(All units are in Level 5) Mapping Process For every unit at INTERCOLLEGE, there must be a combination of units of CPC. A 100% correlation of two individual units cannot exist due to the nature of the two organizations' programs. This means that the following units can only be matched in the level of of learning outcomes (LO). INTERCOLLEGE (All units are in Level 5) CPC Vehicle Electrical and Electronic Systems Unit 2: Electrical and electronic vehicle systems Fault Diagnosis Methodology Unit 4: Vehicle Communication Systems Multiplex Internal Combustion Engines I Unit 1 Basic knowledge and maintenance of vehicles Unit 15 Preparing certification of mechanical engineers vehicle technicians from standards of HRDA – Level 2

Mapping Process INTERCOLLEGE CPC Diesel Engines Technology Unit 1 Basic knowledge and maintenance of vehicles Unit 15 Preparing certification of mechanical engineers vehicle technicians from standards of HRDA – Level 2 Unit 16 Transmission and Propulsion Systems Unit 3 Semiautomatic controlled manual gearboxes. Diagnosis and Programming Vehicle Heating and Air Conditioning Unit 8 Air conditioning systems in motor vehicles with fluorinated greenhouse gases Steering and suspension systems

National advisory Group – NAG The NAG was established by professionals from the entire spectrum of industry, instructors and students. Before the NAG meeting, the LO for each unit were posted to the NAG members, with a questionnaire for evaluating each LO. The purpose was to get feedback so we can readjust our program to students' and industry needs

National advisory committee – NAG Online Questionnaire

National advisory committee – NAG Questionnaire results analysis

Re-design of Units (Example on Automotive Engineering Diploma) Based on the assessment of NAG, the units were redesigned with ECVET points. The LO’s are now separated to Knowledge, Skills, and Competence.

Second NAG questionnaire A second “Online” questionnaire was filled by the NAG, where they assessed the general approach on the modification of units, based on 4 questions. The results were positive

Memorandum of understanding (MoU) The purpose of MoU is the mutual trust between the organizations, regarding the validation, transfer, recognition, and accumulation of the learning outcomes acquired. It is essentially a contract that confirms the transferability of specific learning outcomes between two specific organizations.
