Canadian Technology Standards

                          

Definition

Canadian Technology Standards (CTS),  formerly Canadian Technology Accreditation Criteria (CTAC), are a set of general and discipline specific learning outcomes for each engineering technology and applied science discipline at both the technician and technologist levels. 

Each general and discipline learning outcomes contains a number of Learning Outcome Indicators (LOIs), which are examples, illustrating, defining and clarifying the level of performance to be achieved. 

Uses

CTS are used by accreditation bodies, provincial certifying bodies, educational institutions, government agencies, industry and others for the purposes accreditation, certification and program development. 

CTS form part of the National Accreditation Components, specifically components E.1 Discipline Learning Outcomes and E.2 General Learning Outcomes.
