What is Curriculum Development Through Yts Modular Credit Accumulation about?

This document reports the evaluation of the collaborately developed Modular Training Framework (MainFrame), a British curriculum development project, built around a commitment to a competency-based, modular credit accumulation program. The collaborators were three local education authorities (LEAs), those of Bedfordshire, Haringey, and Sheffield, later joined by Liverpool LEA and the Wirral Metropolitan College. Section 1 of the report is an overview of evaluation objectives. Section 2 outlines the introduction of the Youth Training Scheme (YTS), subsequent changes and developments, and the response of the further education sector. Development of the project is discussed with emphasis on the advantages and disadvantages of collaboration. Section 3 on program design considers the background to the trend to modularization; emphasizes trainee-centered and negotiated curricula, access, and curriculum entitlement; and focuses on integration in the MainFrame modular system. The methodology used for the derivation of a competency-based program and associated assessment considerations are examined. Section 4 evaluates how MainFrame operates in practice. Topics include delivery of programs
