Description
Encode an explicitly asserted directed module-equivalence link.
Adult-education records distinguish qualification credits, recognized evidence, contact time, access formats and consent assertions. Clock hours need not match institutional credit-hour definitions, and missed hours can be a separate recorded category rather than completed study. A selected format label does not establish real accessibility.
Encode an explicitly asserted directed module-equivalence link.
When to use this tool
Use Qualification Module Equivalence Key when you already have sourceQualification, sourceModule, targetQualification, targetModule and need to encode an explicitly asserted directed module-equivalence link.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter sourceQualification, sourceModule, targetQualification, targetModule. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read key. Use the output convention below.
Enter sourceQualification, sourceModule, targetQualification, targetModule using the field constraints below. Encode these values, in exactly that order, as a JSON array and return the serialized array as text in key. String values are preserved without trimming or external terminology lookup.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| sourceQualification | Source Qualification | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| sourceModule | Source Module | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| targetQualification | Target Qualification | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| targetModule | Target Module | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |

}Limitations and assumptions
- The result records supplied values without deciding credit recognition. Sources and asserted relationships are not independently authenticated.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Review learner needs, source evidence, qualification rules and actual course records. Use the complete educational and recognition process when local balances, dates or labels cannot establish competence, eligibility or a feasible access arrangement.
