Abstract
DACUM Method for designing a curriculum for Automotive Technology, which allows for employer and high performing automotive service and repair. DACUM is an acronym for developing a curriculum. It is a one or two day storyboarding process that provides a picture of what the worker does in terms of duties, tasks, knowledge, skills, traits and in some cases the tools the worker uses. The information is presented in graphic chart form and can include information on critical and frequently performed tasks and the training needs of workers. For additional information on DACUM, contact the training resource center at: http://www.trc.eku.edu.
