EXIT LEVEL OUTCOMES 
Critical Cross-field Outcomes:
  • Identify and solve problems in which responses display that responsible decisions using critical and creative thinking have been made.
  • Work effectively with other s as a member of a team, group, organisation and community.
  • Organise and manage oneself and one's activities responsibly and effectively.
  • Collect, analyse, organise and critically evaluate information.
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the world as a set of related systems by recognising that the problem solving context does not exist in isolation.
  • Reflect on and explore a variety of strategies to learn more effectively.
  • Explore education and career opportunities.
  • Develop entrepreneurial opportunities.
  • Communicate effectively using visual, mathematical and language skills in the modes of oral and/or written persuasion.
  • Demonstrate effective and responsible decision making.
  • Stimulate and develop thinking patterns involving creativity.
  • Interpret information received via the media and other sources.
  • Use technology effectively and responsibly.
  • Conduct research independently.

    Please note that all critical cross-field outcomes will be assessed within the context of educational management.

    Specific Outcomes:
  • Identify, application and understanding of body and chassis construction, suspension system, principles and construction of gearboxes, propeller shafts, universal joints, axels and transmissions.
  • Identify, application and understanding of various aspects of engines, including petrol, diesel, as well as bearings, camshafts and crankshafts, carburetion, engine maintenance, overall and repair and tune-up.
  • Identification, understanding and application of chassis details, overalls and repairs to chassis, automatic transmission, motor vehicles tyres, rear axels and differentials. 

  • ASSOCIATED ASSESSMENT CRITERIA 
    Associated Assessment Criteria for Critical Cross-field Outcomes:
  • Problems are solved by means of exploring and critically evaluating abstract and personal situations.
  • Problems are solved by generating alternative strategies for dealing with those problems.
  • Collaborative work as part of a team, group, organisation or community is effective.
  • Organisation and management of self and activities is responsible and effective.
  • Information is collected, analysed, organised and critically evaluated.
  • Recognition of the problem solving context as part of a larger context is demonstrated.
  • Understanding of the world as a set of related systems is demonstrated.
  • Strategies to learn more effectively are explored and reflected on.
  • Education and career opportunities are explored.
  • Entrepreneurial opportunities are developed.
  • Communication using visual, mathematical and language skills in the modes of oral and/or written persuasion is effective.
  • Decision making is responsible and effective.
  • Creative thinking patterns are stimulated and developed.
  • Information from the media and other sources is interpreted.
  • Technology is used effectively and responsibly.
  • Research is conducted independently.

    Associated Assessment Criteria for Specific Outcomes:
  • Body, chassis construction, suspension system, principles and construction of gearboxes, propellor shafts, universal joints, axels and transmissions identified and applied.
  • Overall, repair and tune-up of engines, including petrol, diesel, as well as bearings, camshafts and crankshafts, carburetion, engine maintenance identified and applied.
  • Chassis details, overalls and repairs to chassis, automatic transmission, motor vehicle tyres, rear axels and differentials identified and applied.

    Integrated Assessment:

    Continuous assessment in the form of self-assessment is carried out by the learner. This is done using activities and self-evaluations exercises. Continuous assessment is also carried out by the facilitators in the form of assignments that the learner must submit upon completion of each module of the learning programme.

    Formative and summative assessment are integrated in a final portfolio assessment. The learner builds up a portfolio of activities, self-evaluation exercises, assignments and projects which are assessed in order to determine whether the learner has achieved the exit level outcomes of the qualification.

    PROVIDERS CURRENTLY ACCREDITED TO OFFER THIS QUALIFICATION: 
    This information shows the current accreditations (i.e. those not past their accreditation end dates), and is the most complete record available to SAQA as of today. Some Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionaries have a lag in their recording systems for provider accreditation, in turn leading to a lag in notifying SAQA of all the providers that they have accredited to offer qualifications and unit standards, as well as any extensions to accreditation end dates. The relevant Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionary should be notified if a record appears to be missing from here.
