The ISO standards for the Geometrical Product Specification and Verification (GPS) define an internationally uniform description
language, that allows expressing unambiguously and completely all requirements for the geometry of a product with the corresponding
requirements for the inspection process in technical drawings, taking into account current possibilities of measurement and testing
technology. The practice shows that the university curricula of the mechanical engineering faculties often include only limited classes on
the GPS, mostly as part of curriculum of subjects like Metrology or Fundamentals of Machine Design. This does not allow students to
gain enough knowledge on the subject. Currently there is no coherent EU-wide provision for vocational training (VET) in this area.

course
