Item 3 1. Power and current calculation should be taught at the 3 KSA2. Since a small company, KSA for A1.1.1, A1.1.2 and A1.1.3 are at 43. Good to see root cause analysis in C1.2 performance objectives

Action Taken 1. & 2. – KSA’s are minimum course standards expected of successful completers. Most objectives are taught at a higher level than the KSA assigned but not less than that value. Individual companies may require a higher level of understanding depending on their specific needs.3. No action required

Item 4 Since a small company, KSA for A1.1.1, A1.1.2 and A1.1.3 are at a 4.

Action Taken See action taken – Item 3

Item 6 Explain the function of each atomic component structure
