Endnotes
1
If a competency is only taught in one course, its progression is categorized as “Comprehensive.” If it is taught in more than one course, it is
categorized as “Partial.” The partial progression must be further identified as introduced, developed or finalized. Since a course with only one
competency teaches that competency comprehensively, the progression has already been categorized accordingly.
2
Indicate whether the course is a pre-requisite for another or other courses, is a synthesis course (a course in which the ESP is administered), and,
if available, the attainment of exit profile learning outcomes the course will contribute towards.
