2 Agent Programme INTEC Programme Career Programme Career Booster Career Starter Job Creator Self Enrichment With complex machinery being at the heart of modern industry, Mechanical Engineering is a dynamic industry that requires people with a thorough understanding of mechanics and specialist knowledge. Engineer your learning pathway by choosing one of INTEC s courses. Programme Types offered at INTEC College National Qualifications are credit-bearing qualifications registered on the (National Qualifications Framework) and accredited by a Quality Assurance Body, such as a SETA (Sector Education and Training Authority). A skills programme is an accredited component of a national qualification. Agent Programmes are programmes for which INTEC offers tuition, but where INTEC does not issue the final certificate. The Agent body issues the final certificate and manages the final examinations. INTEC Programmes are INTEC s own programmes that are not linked to the and are not credit-bearing. However, they are in high demand and carry the approval of the INTEC Academic Board. INTEC Programmes fall into FIVE categories: INTEC Career Programmes are INTEC s own programmes that are designed to teach you the skills and knowledge to succeed in a particular career. INTEC Career Booster courses are continuous professional development (CPD) short courses that help you add to your current professional knowledge in a particular field, and hence boost your abilities within your career. INTEC Career Starter courses are short courses that introduce you to a particular field or career; and that offer you the opportunity to explore an interest or a skills set without having to enrol on a full programme. INTEC Job Creator courses are designed to refine your skills in a particular field of interest; to teach you how to make a living from a particular skill, interest or hobby, and to help you start your own business. INTEC Self-Enrichment courses are offered for self-enrichment purposes. They will add value to your experience of life in a particular chosen field of interest.
