Update on PDA Software Development
I recently posted about the forthcoming validation of this new suite of awards. It will take place on Tuesday, 15 December in the SQA offices in Glasgow. A strong panel has been selected to scrutinise the awards. The development was announced in June but, due to the academic calendar, didn’t commence until late August. So, it’s been a speedy development. But, I think, it’s been thorough. Almost 100 representatives participated in the research (including 28 employers) and the results are overwhelmingly supportive. I’ll let you know the outcome of the validation as soon as it has taken place. We’ll then operationalise the awards as quickly as possible. The awards will be available to centres from the end of January.
I am presently validating the component units. There are nine new (double credit) units in total. They’re shaping up well and will be validated by 15 December. These units will be available to centres from early January.
