Arts, AV Technology and Communications

The competency listings are intended to serve as guides to assist teachers and administrators in providing an instructional program that is current and relevant. Arts, AV Technology, and Communications skill standards address what a worker needs to know and be able to do and contribute to a safe, productive, and effective work environment. Students will be properly prepared for their careers when the standards listed are integrated with quality instructional techniques. The standards provide a secure foundation for future training in the student's career.

The following provide the basis for development of a student profile that can be shared with prospective employers, and in many instances, the standards can be used for planning and implementing articulation agreements with comparable programs at the post-secondary level.
