3.2 TRAINING DELIVERY

The delivery of training should follow to the design of the curriculum. Delivery should be guided by the 10 basic principles of 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 on 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:

The dualized mode of training delivery is preferred and recommended, thus, programs would contain both in-school and in-industry training or fieldwork components. Details can be referred to the Dual Training System (DTS) Implementing Rules and Regulations

Modular/self-paced learning is a competency-based training modality where the trainee is allowed to progress at his own pace. The trainer only facilitates the training delivery

Peer teaching/mentoring is a training modality wherein fast learners are given the opportunity to assist the slow learners

Supervised industry training or on-the-job training is a training approach designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of the trainee through actual experience in the workplace to acquire specific competencies prescribed in the training regulations
