TRAINING DELIVERY
The delivery of training should adhere to the design of the curriculum.
Delivery should be guided by the 10 basic principles of the competency-based
TVET.
The training is based on curriculum developed from the competency
standards;
Learning is modular in its structure;
Training delivery is individualized and self-paced;
Training is based on work that must be performed;
Training materials are directly related to the competency standards and
the curriculum modules;
Assessment is based in the collection of evidence of the performance of
work to the industry required standard;
Training is based both on and off-the-job components;
Allows for recognition of prior learning (RPL) or current competencies;
Training allows for multiple entry and exit; and
Approved training programs are nationally accredited.
The competency-based TVET system recognizes various types of delivery
modes, both on and off-the-job as long as the learning is driven by the competency
standards specified by the industry. The following training modalities may be
adopted when designing training programs:

DEFINITION OF TERMS
GENERAL
1) Certification - is the process of verifying and validating the competencies of a
person through assessment
2) Certificate of Competency (COC) is a certification issued to individuals who
pass the assessment for a single unit or cluster of units of competency
3) Common Competencies - are the skills and knowledge needed by all people
working in a particular industry
4) Competency - is the possession and application of knowledge, skills and
attitudes to perform work activities to the standard expected in the workplace
5) Competency Assessment - is the process of collecting evidence and making
judgments on whether competency has been achieved
6) Competency Standard (CS) - is the industry-determined specification of
competencies required for effective work performance
7) Context of Assessment - refers to the place where assessment is to be
conducted or carried out
8) Core Competencies - are the specific skills and knowledge needed in a particular
area of work - industry sector/occupation/job role
9) Critical aspects of competency - refers to the evidence that is essential for
successful performance of the unit of competency
10)Elective Competencies - are the additional skills and knowledge required by the
individual or enterprise for work
11)Elements - are the building blocks of a unit of competency. They describe in
outcome terms the functions that a person performs in the workplace.
12)Evidence Guide - is a component of the unit of competency that defines or
identifies the evidences required to determine the competence of the individual. It
provides information on critical aspects of competency, underpinning knowledge,
underpinning skills, resource implications, assessment method and context of
assessment
13)Level - refers to the category of skills and knowledge required to do a job
14)Method of Assessment - refers to the ways of collecting evidence and when,
evidence should be collected
