Last week, LAN and IEM came to assess a degree course in MMU Melaka Campus. The assessed course is BEng(Hons) Electronics majoring in Robotics and Automation.
Assessment can be only be performed if the new course got final year students who are working for their final year project as well.  Ohana Means Family This post has been edited by David83: Feb 27 2006, 02:58 AM |

Course Approval and Course Accreditation is two distinctive criteria to determine a course quality. An approved course may not be an accreditated course but not the other way round.
MOHE is doing the approval and LAN is doing the accreditation. For Engineering courses, there's IEM cooperation with LAN for accreditation. Ohana Means Family This post has been edited by David83: Mar 3 2006, 02:14 PM |

Once the course is approved and accredited, previous, current and future students will get the recognition throughout Malaysia.

QUOTE(azarimy @ Mar 4 2006, 04:15 AM) i'm definitely sure about the current and future students, but i dont think they'll give accreditation automatically to the previous students. in UTM, the part time architectural degree is currently undergoing accreditation, and i was part of the committee working on the accreditation (until i took study leave). You may right about the accreditation to the previous batches of students. I apologize for that statement ...LAN didnt award full accreditation for the course, and told us accreditation is pending a few adjustments and additions that they require, but, the current graduating batch and the one before it gets full accreditation. we asked about the other previous batches, they said those graduates could apply accreditation individually. it's too far back over the years for them to give accreditation automatically.

QUOTE(azarimy @ Mar 4 2006, 05:30 PM) well, i'm not sure about that. if they give full accreditation to the course, they MIGHT give all previous batches accreditation as well. but here's the procedure: As for my course, my seniors have been through what you have been through.during the accreditation assessment, they want to see ALL works done by the current AND previous students. and they werent kidding about ALL works. students that were granted accreditation during our times were those who had ALL their works. those who have less than 70% of their works (especially the final year dissertation/project) were not given accreditation. so if u've graduated by an unaccredited course, keep all ur works. i mean EVERYTHING! Last month, some of friends were attending the accreditation evaluation session as described as you. If everything is sailing smoothly, the course will be accreditated by LAN and IEM. MMU does have cases where the degree is failed to get accreditated for the first time but that won't stop the APAC and faculty to keep on pressing the LAN-IEM buttons. Ohana Means Family |

QUOTE(misao @ Mar 15 2006, 11:50 PM) Btw, do employers in the private sector EVER ask whether or not your course is LAN accredited? :/ It depends and mostly not. |

Private sector prefers skills over academics but some companies prefer higher CGPA. The degree recognition and accreditation did not affect much.
