TECHNICAL EDUCATION AND SKILLS DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY

COMPETENCY-BASED CURRICULUM (CBC) q First stage of developing educational document which is closely linked to competency standards. q A Competency-Based Curriculum is a framework or guide for the subsequent detailed development of competencies, associated methodologies, training and assessment resources. q The CBC specifies the outcomes which are consistent with the requirements of the workplace as agreed through the industry and community consultations. q When competency standards do not exist, curriculum developers need to clearly define the learning outcomes to be attained. The standard of performance required must be appropriate to industry and occupational needs.

The process of developing competency-based curriculum takes into account the : 1) Specifications of the competency standards and, 2) Background and requirements of the learners or trainees. . The process of development will involve representatives from industry, curriculum developers and teachers or trainers experienced in the subject matter/industry sector. A different group of developers may come up with a different CBC structure. What is essential is that the outcomes of the training and assessment of the total course are constant with the industry standards. The components of a Competency- Based Curriculum are: v Modules of Instruction/Training v Course Design

MODULE STRUCTURE Unit of Competency Module 1 2 Module 3 Set of Modules It should not be assumed that one unit of competency will lead to one module of training. In some cases it may be appropriate to develop modules of training, which are applicable to several units of competency, e. g. A module concerning occupational health and safety. Such modules may relate to underpinning knowledge and skills relevant to one or more units.

You need to look at those units and make sure you have a clear picture of what the learner should be able to do after completing the module

MODULE DESCRIPTOR This module covers the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to comply with regulatory and organizational requirements for occupational health and safety.

STAGE SUMMARY OF LEARNING OUTCOME Formulate/Prepare list of all the learning outcomes under each unit (summary of learning outcomes) Learning outcome must describe a discrete element the learner should learn, acquire and be able to do/apply in the workplace Review and revise when necessary MODULE INFORMATION LEARNING OUTCOME To write the learning outcomes, carefully examine the unit(s) of competency to ensure that the learners needs/requirements are addressed. Learning outcomes are the intended results of learning. You must write them in terms of what the learners will learn, acquire and apply, keeping the statement clear and concise. Each learning outcome is described separately, beginning with a verb. Learning outcomes need to have 8 an action verb 8 an object for the activity involved

SUMMARY OF LEARNING OUTCOMES : Upon completion of this module, the trainee/student must be able to: LO 1. Identify hazards and risks LO 2. Evaluate hazards and risks LO 3. Control hazards and risks LO 4. Maintain occupational health and safety awareness

STAGE NOMINAL DURATION Allocate estimated no. of hours (duration) to accomplish each of the learning outcomes under a particular unit. Add all the learning outcomes’ duration and place sub total under a particular unit Review and revise the duration when necessary MODULE INFORMATION NOMINAL DURATION In determining the average suggested number of hours, you will need to judge the amount of learning or training the student will require to achieve the module outcomes

LEARNING OUTCOMES Estimated number of hour LO 1. Identify hazards and risks 2 LO 2. Evaluate hazards and risks 4 LO 3. Control hazards and risks 6 LO 4. Maintain occupational health and safety awareness 6 Total In order to come up with estimated number of hours in a particular module, determine how much time a learner needs to acquire a higher level of mastery in every learning outcome. 18

STAGE LEVEL OF CERTIFICATION Identify certification level based on the prescribed level in the PTQF PRE-REQUISITE Identify the pre-requisite of a particular module (if necessary) MODULE INFORMATION LEVEL OF CERTIFICATION See certification levels on competency standards. e. g. NC I, NC III and NC IV. PRE-REQUISITE Pre-requisites are those modules or competencies which learners must have successfully completed or achieved before commencing on the next module.

STAGE ASSESSMENT CRITERIA MODULE INFORMATION ASSESSMENT CRITERIA List all the assessment criteria under each learning outcome Assessment criteria are used to guide the judgement of whether or not a learner has achieved a learning outcome. Assessment criteria must specify the performance outcomes (knowledge, skills and attitudes) the learner will be able to demonstrate at the conclusion of the learning outcome. For each learning outcome, list the criteria you would use to judge whether the learner has achieved the learning outcome. NOTE: Review and revise when necessary Make sure you do not end up with a list or content statements.

LO 1. IDENTIFY HAZARDS AND RISKS ASSESSMENT CRITERIA : Assessment criteria must be observable and measurable within the level of performance 1. Workplace hazards and risks are identified and clearly explained. 2. Hazards/Risks and its corresponding indicators are identified in line with workplace procedures. 3. Contingency measures are recognized and established in accordance with organizational procedures.
