Title
Competency-Graph Based Elearning Content Development For Halal Quality Control
Abstract
Processing and the production of the food and dairy products is one of the most critical industrial sectors because of its direct effect on human health. On the other hand, echo-ethical concepts such as Kosher, Vegetarian and Halal terms are becoming more popular for certain communities. The concept of Halal on food production and its importance for Muslim communities makes it a great business opportunity in all around the world with its potential of exceeding 500 billion USD. Generating standards for Halal Quality and transforming the religious rules in today’s industry and implementing the Halal concept on food production with well-documented procedures require the combination of various knowledge with systems engineering practices. More effective and efficient ways have to be also developed to disseminate this knowledge. Since a universal set of standards for Certification of Halal is not established yet, Halal Accreditation Agencies in different parts of the world follow various standards to their best. This paper suggests an approach to develop elearning content in order to facilitate the training for Halal Quality Control and Certification practices. It is based on the establishment of competency-graphs according to the standards set in general guidelines of Codex Alimentarius Commission, Malaysian and Bosnian (CACMB) Standards. The suggested competency-graphs in this paper may be used as a model for designing an elearning platform in training all related parties before and during the Halal quality control and certification processes.
