SECTION 3 TRAINING ARRANGEMENTS
This set of standards provides Technical and Vocational Education and Training
(TVET) providers with information and other important requirements to consider when
designing training programs for Mechatronics Servicing NC III.
Delivery of knowledge requirements for the basic, common and core units of
competency specifically in the areas of mathematics, science/technology,
communication/language and other academic subjects shall be contextualized. To this
end, TVET providers shall develop a Contextual Learning Matrix (CLM) to accompany
their curricula.
Course Description:
This course is designed to develop & enhance the knowledge, skills, & attitudes of
a mechatronics and automation technician, in accordance with industry standards. It
covers the basic & common competencies in addition to the core competencies such as
developing mechatronics and automation control circuits and PLC application programs,
developing motion control and system configuration on mechatronics and automation
system as well as maintaining and repairing PLC-based mechatronics and automation
sytems.
(The nominal duration of 196 hours covers only the basic, common and core units at
Mechatronics Servicing NC III level. TVET providers can however, offer a longer,
ladderized course covering both Mechatronics Servicing NC II and NC III basic, common
and core units. )

SECTION 3 TRAINING ARRANGEMENTS
This set of standards provides Technical and Vocational Education and Training
(TVET) providers with information and other important requirements to consider when
designing training programs for Mechatronics Servicing NC III.
Delivery of knowledge requirements for the basic, common and core units of
competency specifically in the areas of mathematics, science/technology,
communication/language and other academic subjects shall be contextualized. To this
end, TVET providers shall develop a Contextual Learning Matrix (CLM) to accompany
their curricula.
Course Description:
This course is designed to develop & enhance the knowledge, skills, & attitudes of
a mechatronics and automation technician, in accordance with industry standards. It
covers the basic & common competencies in addition to the core competencies such as
developing mechatronics and automation control circuits and PLC application programs,
developing motion control and system configuration on mechatronics and automation
system as well as maintaining and repairing PLC-based mechatronics and automation
sytems.
(The nominal duration of 196 hours covers only the basic, common and core units at
Mechatronics Servicing NC III level. TVET providers can however, offer a longer,
ladderized course covering both Mechatronics Servicing NC II and NC III basic, common
and core units. )
