This document contains 17 units to consider for use in a tech prep competency profile for the occupation of computer programming technician. All the units listed will not necessarily apply to every situation or tech prep consortium, nor will all the competencies within each unit be appropriate. Several units appear within each specific occupation and would need to only appear once if the user is compiling a cluster of occupations. The first three units are divided into subunits. These units (communications literacy, mathematics literacy, and science literacy) list the competencies for each subunit. The remaining units are divided into competencies, followed by a listing of competency builders. These units are as follows: technology literacy, employability skills, professionalism, teamwork, quality assurance, technical recording and reporting, computer literacy, workplace safety, supervision, microcomputer electronics technology, drafting technology, computer-assisted drafting and design (CADD) fundamentals, application programming and design, and local area network (LAN) operations.
