National Certificate in Design (Level 3)

|Level |3 |

|Credits |56 |

This qualification is expiring. The last date to meet the requirements is 31 December 2017.

Purpose

This qualification recognises learners who are able to enter the work force with the skills to produce and communicate a fit for purpose, developed design response (product or graphics) which meets a defined need. It is envisaged that students gaining this qualification will wish to enter the design industry and build upon this qualification in subsequent work and training.

The qualification is targeted at secondary school students undertaking courses in Graphics and Design and is linked to the curricula at Years 12 and 13. Most studying for the qualification will do so in combination with other Year 12 and 13 subjects and will work towards it over 2 years.

It is anticipated that broadly based programmes that meet the needs of the curriculum will be maintained and that evidence towards the attainment of the standards will be collected as part of the learning process.

Special Notes

Entry information for programmes of education and training assessed against the unit standards in the qualification:

Open. However, it is recommended that students should have achieved the following unit standards before entering programmes leading to qualification:

Unit 7489, Identify design problems and carry out investigation;

Unit 7490, Apply visual design elements to solve design problems;

Unit 7491, Develop and refine design solutions;

Unit 7492, Present design work;

Unit 7507, Use freehand sketching techniques to show design development.
