Proposed 2008 Standards RevisionsAutomotive Collision Repair

Diploma

Proposed Revisions:The Automotive Collision Repair Working Committee, in collaboration with the Automotive Collision Repair Advisory Committees, recommends the revisions to the standards stated in the attached Automotive Collision Repair Probe Report. Because of statewide academic course changes, it is recommended that ENG 100 be replaced by ENG 1010 and MAT 101 be replaced by MAT 1012 as core courses for this program.

The Technical Certificates of Credit for this program have been consolidated. The proposed revisions to the program standards in this document are reflected in the curricula for the Automotive Collision Repair consolidated Technical Certificates of Credit.

Recommended Action – TCSG Staff:Recommends approval of the working committee proposed changes.

Recommended Action – VPAA Council:Supports recommendations as proposed by the TCSG system office staff.

Recommended Action – Presidents Council:Concurs with recommendations as proposed by the VPAA Council.

Recommended Action – TCSG Board:Approved proposed revisions to the Program Standards of Automotive Collision Repair, diploma as recommended by the Presidents Council be approved. Institutions may implement the revisions immediately and must implement them by Spring Quarter 2010 (201103).

Quality Improvement Initiative

The program standards and guides materials, which form the basis for instruction in Georgia’s technical colleges, are developed to support industry driven needs. Faculty and local program advisory committees review programs, each year, to ensure the latest technology and employment needs are addressed for the program.

Through the Instructional Faculty Consortium Committee (IFCC) process, programs are reviewed and, if needed, recommendations are made to update competencies found in the program. Given the accelerating changes in technology and the workplace, a major systematic updating of all standardized programs in the technical colleges, with business and industry involvements, is needed.

A joint IFCC Executive Board and Advisory Committees meetings were held in September / 2007 to examine the Automotive Collision Repair, Diploma, program. A working committee composed of instructors and Advisory Committee members met in September / 2007 to discuss and respond to recommendations made by the IFCC Executive Board and STC members.

Currently, the Probe process is being initiated for program revisions recommended by the Advisory Committee members. The following sections are included in this Probe document:

a listing of the IFCC Executive Board a listing of the Advisory Committee members a list of the Working Committee members and recommendations made by the IFCC Executive Board and Advisory Committee members

The recommended changes/revisions made in this document apply to the Automotive Collision Repair, Diploma program. The deleted items are reflected with a strikethrough while new material is boldfaced. Course number and course title changes are recommended to more accurately describe the course level and content of the affected courses and enhance transferability.

The appropriate sections from the program standards are included, showing recommended revisions, and a revised curriculum sequence illustrates the impact of revisions on scheduling.
