Training on CBT and A Methodology and Strategic Competency Architecture
Course Overview
Competency-Based Training and Assessment (CBT&A) ensures learners acquire practical, measurable skills aligned with occupational standards and employer expectations. It focuses on demonstrated competence rather than time spent in training.
This course equips participants with structured frameworks to design, deliver, and assess competency-based programs across TVET institutions, workforce agencies, corporates, and nonprofit training initiatives. It integrates occupational standards mapping, modular curriculum design, workplace assessment methods, recognition of prior learning, and quality assurance systems.
Participants will gain practical tools to implement CBT&A systems that strengthen employability, improve productivity, and align education with labor market demand.
