they be able to do? What kind of jobs
should they move and progress into?

What are the elements of this
curriculum? Think in terms of courses or
modules. Consider traditional and
emerging concepts and skills.

Organize this into a curriculum. How is
this different than curriculum that you

What needs to change, what needs to

happening? What are risks if it doesn't?
