SEMI / NEATEC Process

The SEMI / NEATEC Certification Process profiles courses and programs to determine alignment with industry requirements. These educational competencies are compared to the SEMI/NEATEC Unified Competency Model (UCM), which is maintained by industry through a SEMI facilitated process. Once a course or a program is profiled, the course and/or program data are added to the SEMI Works™Portal. The SEMI Works™ Portal uses the data to match those seeking training to providers.

Activities

• Review partner technician education programs to check if these programs align with the Proficiency-driven Academic Alignment Program (AAP) developed by SEMI-Cert. 

Benefits

• Greater alignment between courses and industry requirements.
• The ability to match courses to those seeking training.
• Improved marketing and increased awareness of aligned courses by individuals and employers.
