Vocational Training in Higher Education: A Learning Centred Approach to Integrating ‘Educultures’
The goal of this effort is to make plain any overlap between Post-Secondary Mechanical Technician Standards and Plumbing Apprenticeship Curriculum Standards. We'll investigate whether the overlap is significant enough to create a modern and updated classroom learning template. Mechanical Techni...
