What is Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC)?

14

A competency-based curriculum is a framework or guide for the subsequent detailed development of competencies, associated methodologies, training and assessment resources.

The CBC specifies the outcomes which are consistent with the requirements of the workplace as agreed through the industry or community consultations.

CBC can be developed immediately when competency standards exist. 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 through the industry/enterprise or specified client group consultations.

These materials are available in both printed and electronic copies.

For more information please contact:Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA)Telephone Nos.: 893-8281, 817-4076 to 82 loc. 611, 630, 631 and 635 or visit our website: www.tesda.gov.ph or the TESDA Regional or Provincial Office nearest you
