Introduction A module is a statement of the standards to be achieved to gain a FETAC award. Candidates are assessed to establish whether they have achieved the required standards. Credit is awarded for each module successfully completed. The standards in a module are expressed principally in terms of specific learning outcomes, i.e. what the learner will be able to do on successful completion of the module. The other elements of the module - the purpose, general aims, assessment details and assessment criteria - combine with the learning outcomes to state the standards in a holistic way. While FETAC is responsible for setting the standards for certification in partnership with course providers and industry, it is the course providers who are responsible for the design of the learning programmes. The duration, content and delivery of learning programmes should be appropriate to the learners’ needs and interests, and should enable the learners to reach the standard as described in the modules. Modules may be delivered alone or integrated with other modules. The development of learners’ core skills is a key objective of vocational education and training. The opportunity to develop these skills may arise through a single module or a range of modules. The core skills include: • taking initiative • taking responsibility for one’s own learning and progress • problem solving • applying theoretical knowledge in practical contexts • being numerate and literate • having information and communication technology skills • sourcing and organising information effectively • listening effectively • communicating orally and in writing • working effectively in group situations • understanding health and safety issues • reflecting on and evaluating quality of own learning and achievement. Course providers are encouraged to design programmes which enable learners to develop core skills. 1 Module Title Manufacturing Meat Products 2 Module Code C20252 3 Level 5 4 Credit Value 1 credit 5 Purpose This module is a statement of the standards to be achieved to gain a FETAC credit in Manufacturing Meat Products at Level 5.
