ALP+ Extended Diploma in Engineering (Electronics)

This course with its various strands is particularly aimed at students who have successfully completed their studies at the Alternative Learning Programme of the Ministry for Education. The ALP+ programme is designed in a way that enables students to focus on a vocational area at MQF Level 3. It will provide the knowledge and skills required by the students for eventual employment at assistant technician level in various labour market sectors related to engineering, agribusiness, community services, creative arts, ICT and business. The programme combines basic skills training at both MQF Level 2 and MQF Level 3 with vocational studies at MQF Level 3, providing theoretical and practical education and training with a combination of classroom based lectures, laboratory and workshop sessions, onsite practices and possibly work based learning opportunities. On successful completion of the two-year course students will be able to access the labour market or else to continue with their studies at MCAST by following an Advanced Diploma at MQF Level 4 in their preferred area of study.
