摘要：Academic computing programs often want to keep pace with technological changes by frequently
updating their program contents. These program changes are often reactionary and lack uniform
standards. Thus some of the changes are often rolled back and, as a result, face additional changes
shortly after their implementation. A helpful strategy in computer program updates is to utilize a
standard curriculum to gauge and benchmark the program.
This paper compares the content of two technology programs with a standard curriculum developed
by the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) and other organizations including, AIS,
AITP, IEEE and ABET-CAC. The paper examines the content of two technology programs: The
Technology Support and Training program (TST) at Eberly College of Business – Indiana University
of Pennsylvania (IUP), and the Computer Information Systems (CIS) and Information
Sciences (IS) programs in the School of Communications and Information Technology at Robert
Morris University (RMU). It then compares the content of both programs with the Computing
Curricula Information – Information Technology Volume (IT2005) Body of Knowledge.
