Wake Technical Community College Will Host a DACUM

Dr. Stephen Scott, president of Wake Technical Community College, announced that the college has invited professionals from the digital game industry to participate in a DACUM on Dec. 14 from 9 a.m.“6 p.m.

The DACUM will attempt to connect the dots between what occurs in the classroom and what happens on the job. The industry professionals will serve as a panel of experts to analyze occupations in the industry and produce a profile of the duties and tasks required of successful workers. Their focus will be on programming, game and level design, testing, production and modeling.

DACUM, or Developing a Curriculum, is an approach developed and copyrighted in 1990 by the Center for Education and Training for Employment at The Ohio State University. A DACUM can be used as a basis for curriculum development, worker performance evaluations, competency test development and job descriptions.

"We are pleased to host a DACUM to ensure we are preparing workers to meet the workforce requirements of this important Triangle industry," says Dr. Scott. "We appreciate the time and effort of the many industry professionals who are helping us develop and refine this curriculum."
