The document outlines the key components that should be included when preparing a TVET (technical and vocational education and training) curriculum. It states that a curriculum should include: an introductory preface describing the outcome-based TVET system and occupational standards; the program design and description aligned with occupational standards; course descriptions, objectives and outcomes; topics; code; credits and duration; target groups and enrollment requirements; modes of delivery including cooperative training; session plans; program structure; assessments of learning outcomes; trainer profiles; and resource requirements. The goal is to design a curriculum that develops the necessary skills, knowledge and attitudes to meet workplace standards through practical and theoretical learning assessments.

TVETDelivery.
The
department
you
want

duration
of
the
TVETprogramme subject level eg. I or II,
version and year based on the descriptors
elaborated
on
the

spant by the trainees in the industry will
give the enough exposure to the actual

hands-on
experience.
the
co-operative
approach will be supported with lecturediscussion,
simulation
and
actual
practice.
These
modalities
will
be
utilized before the trainees are exposed

- Detailed Session/Lesson/ Plan and annual
plan
including
teaching
methods
by
considering
80
present
of
practical
sessioni.e.
- TVET-programme structure it should be
planed by using tables it includes unit of
compitance,
module
code
and
title.
Learning outcomes and hours the title
takes
- Institutional Assessments
(Unit
of
Competency,
Occupational
Standards) evaluation should be project
based, practical, theoretical etc… the
specific learning outcomes are stated in
the modules. In assessing them, verifiable
and observable indicators and standards
shall be used. The formative assessment is
incorporated in the learning modules and
form
part
of
the
learning

3. the
unit
of

have
been
accomplished. It determines the extent to
which competence have been achieved. And,
the result of this assessment decision
shall be expressed in the term ‘competent
or not yet competent. The techniques or
tools
for
obtaining
information
about
trainees’ achievement included oral or
written test, demonstration and on-site
observation.
- TVET trainers profile, it included the
trainers conducting this particular TVET
programme are at least C level and have
satisfactory
practical
experiences
or
equivalent qualifications.
Other requirements
Have attended relevant training
and seminars
- Resources
&
Materials

(including
Library,
TTLM,
textbooks
&
references books) should be stated, and
other class related activities (eg. lab,
workshop, field trips/works/… should be
clearly mentioned)
