The seriousness of improving the competency of D-IV MDE graduates is once again demonstrated by introducing 2 new competency schemes: the Mechanical Maintenance Junior Engineer Scheme and the Mechanical Engineering Design Scheme.

The two schemes align with the D-IV MDE curriculum, which is divided into three concentrations: thermal fluids, maintenance, and production. The ultimate goal of these schemes is for D-IV MDE graduates to obtain a diploma and competency certificate in their respective fields upon graduation. The next step involves Competency Assessor Certification and the Development of Unit Competency Standards (MUK). This will ensure the realization of scheme licenses.
