SCS-based / SGC-based Course

SCS-based/SGC-based courses refer to education and training courses that adopt the SCSs or Specifications of Generic (Foundation) Competencies (SGCs) as the main basis for curriculum design. The contents and learning outcomes have to meet the performance requirements as set out in the relevant UoCs under the SCS/SGC. Furthermore, the structure and design of SCS-based/SGC-based courses are governed by the principles stipulated under the Qualifications Guidelines issued by the Education Bureau.

Please visit Qualifications Register (QR) to search SCS-based courses for the ICT industry.

ICT ITAC will explore the need of developing SCS-based training packages to encourage enterprises and education and training providers to developcourses more closely aligned with the needs of industry.
