TecCOMFrame

|   Meetings_

In 2015 a 3-year EU-funded project entitled TecCOMFrame was launched to develop prototype curricula that are based on a common European academic competence framework. In our webinar, we will present four prototype curricula aiming at different profiles of students which correspond to the levels 5 to 7 of the European Quality Framework (EQF). They can serve as templates from which higher education institutes can derive their own curricula tailored according to their needs and the local conditions.

In most European countries, no programs of study in technical communication are offered and individuals enter the field without formal training. At the same time, technical communication is getting increasingly important due to digitalization, fast growing technology and legal or other requirements. In 2015 a 3-year EU-funded project entitled TecCOMFrame was launched to develop prototype curricula that are based on a common European academic competence framework. In our webinar, we will demonstrate the work in progress on the curricula. Four prototype curricula aiming at different profiles of students will be presented which correspond to the levels 5 to 7 of the European Quality Framework (EQF). The prototype curricula can serve as templates from which higher education institutes can derive their own curricula tailored according to their needs and the local conditions: one bachelor program, one master program, and two specialization programs for language and engineering studies. Based on the presentations of the prototypes, we would like to collect feedback from the audience, educators as well as practitioners, on whether such prototypes can be useful and contain relevant aspects.

This webinar is free for everyone interested in participating.
