Summary of review and consultation process |
The review and consultation process began in April 2020. The review group comprised of members from the original qualification development process and members included for their expertise in a specific field of Mechanical Building Services (MBS). The initial meeting was part of the Sector Advisory Group (SAG) meeting. Considering the degree of collaboration with the development of version 1 of the programme and subsequent launch Oct/Nov 2018 several qualification changes were noted. Due to the Covid-19 lockdown the remainder of communication was via email and online meetings. |
Main changes resulting from the review |
· Graduate profile outcomes were reviewed for clarity and to meet current technical requirements. · Conditions relating to graduate profile outcomes were removed in most instances. · Additional graduate profile outcomes were developed to incorporate the requirements of removed conditions. · Credit values were reviewed and updated where required. |
