With the implementation of the New Academic Structure, General Education (GE) in four-year degree programmes has become increasingly important. Based on the Revised Common Descriptors, 60% of an associate degree (AD) curricula is General Education. Currently, different AD providers have their own model of GE curriculum and their own set of GE intended learning outcomes (ILOs) and/or programme intended learning outcomes which presumably also cover their GE components. At the same time, on the degree level, there are also a range of GE models and GE learning outcomes across universities. As to exemption and transfer of GE units vertically from the sub-degree to the degree level, each publicly-funded degree institutions has their own individual practices to deal with credit transfer/exemption of GE units from the sub-degree sector. Organized by the Federation for Self-financing Tertiary Education (FSTE), the conference aims to facilitate the communication between the sub-degree and degree sectors, as well as among the self-financing and publicly-funded institutions in Hong Kong, with a view to taking sub-degree GE further towards the goal of achieving smoother credit recognition by, and articulation to, the degree sector.
