Explanatory Guide to the Coding System Adopted by Midmak International Academy
As part of its commitment to applying a standardized and systematic framework for the classification of educational and professional programs, Midmak International Academy – Syria & Australia has adopted a unified coding system that organizes training pathways and specialized fields across various sectors. This system is based on a clear conceptual distinction between the terms “Track” and “Pathway” as outlined below:
First: Track
A Track refers to the general academic or professional domain that serves as a primary framework encompassing a set of specialized sub-pathways.
It is translated as: Track, and is coded using a two-letter abbreviation in the official coding structure.
| Track (Arabic) | English Translation | Code |
|
المساق الطبي |
Medical Track |
ME |
|
المساق الصحي |
Health Track |
HL |
|
المساق الصيدلاني |
Pharmacy Track |
PH |
|
المساق الهندسي |
Engineering Track |
EN |
|
المساق القانوني |
Legal Track |
LG |
Second: Pathway
A Pathway represents a specialized or skills-based subdomain within a broader Track.
It is translated as: Pathway, and is coded using a three-part format consisting of:
[Track Code] – [Pathway Code] – [Unique Serial Number]
| Pathway (Arabic) | English Translation | Code |
|
مسار الليزر التجميلي |
Aesthetic Laser Pathway |
HL-LS-01 |
|
مسار السلامة المهنية |
Occupational Safety Pathway |
HL-SF-02 |
|
مسار التصميم الهيكلي |
Structural Design Pathway |
EN-SD-01 |
|
مسار الذكاء الاصطناعي |
Artificial Intelligence Pathway |
EN-AI-01 |
|
مسار القانون الدولي |
International Law Pathway |
LG-IL-01 |
Third: Coding Structure
The coding system used by Midmak International Academy follows a methodical sequence composed of four core segments:
[Track Code] – [Pathway Code] – [Sector Number] – [Unit or Pathway Number]
Example: PH-C-01-01
This denotes:
- )PH( = Pharmacy Track
- )C( = Pathway Code (Core Skills)
- )01( = Sector Number
- )01( = Unit Number within the pathway
Fourth: Objectives of the Coding System
- To facilitate the classification and design of training and academic programs based on clear and integrated standards, enabling an organized and traceable training structure.
- To align with international frameworks and quality systems, such as ISO 21001 (Educational Organizations Management Systems), the European Qualifications Framework (EQF), and Competency-Based Education and Training (CBET), thereby enhancing reliability and accreditation.
- To enable precise tracking and data management for training portfolios, certificates, and granted qualifications, supporting archiving, monitoring, and administrative follow-up.
- To ensure consistency across all academy sectors, creating unified methodologies between Tracks and Pathways and reinforcing the structural integration of programs.
- To streamline local and international documentation and accreditation processes, by linking each program or certificate to its unique official code, thereby boosting institutional and academic recognition worldwide.
- To provide a scalable and expandable framework, allowing the addition of new pathways or training units within the same system without disruption or reclassification.
Note:
This coding system is officially adopted in all program documents, certificates, brochures, and classifications issued by Midmak International Academy – Syria & Australia, and is attached to each diploma or certificate to ensure traceability and institutional integrity.
