Skill
Standards for dispensing opticians have been coordinated through
a steering committee made up of faculty from Highline Community
College, Spokane Community College, industry representatives
from Costco, Group Health, and Pearle Vision, Eye Care Team
in Spokane, representatives from the Joint Apprenticeship Training
Committee, and the United Food and Commercial Workers Union
Local # 1001.
The
project began during the summer of 1998 with the completion
of a curriculum assessment conducted at Highline and Spokane
in the 1999 winter quarter. All the skill standards
development processes, from the focus group to the SCANS and
validation surveys and document writing, have been completed.
The manual is currently in the layout and design stage and
is expected to go to print by mid-to late May with distribution
by late June.
