3 1. INTRODUCTION The Directorate General of Employment & Training (DGE&T) in Ministry of Labour is the apex organization for development and coordination at National level for the programmes relating to vocational training including Women's Vocational Training and Employment Services. Employment service is operated through a countrywide network of Employment Exchanges. Industrial Training Institutes are under the administrative and financial control of State Governments or Union Territory Administrations. DGE&T also operates Vocational Training Schemes in some of the specialized areas through field institutes under its direct control. Development of these programmes at national level, particularly in the area concerning common policies, common standards and procedures, training of instructors and trade testing are the responsibility of the DGE&T. But, day-to-day administration of employment Exchanges and Industrial Training Institutes rests with the State Governments/ Union Territories Administrations. CSTARI one of the field institute of DGE&T is mandated to develop curricula for various courses under different schemes viz., CTS, ATS, MES, CoE& CITS. All the courses are certificate level and run on pan India basis under the ageis of NCVT. The curricula developed so far by this institute are skill based which catered the need of the industry manpower there by contributing significantly in the development of technical manpower. Hence vocational training provides country wide manpower and these trained manpower actually builds the wealth for the nation. The broad concept of industry competency concerns the ability to perform particular tasks and duties to the standard of performance expected in the workplace. Competency requires the application of specified skills, knowledge and attitudes relevant to effective participation in an industry, industry sector or enterprise. Competency covers all aspects of workplace performance and involves performing individual tasks; managing a range of different tasks; responding to contingencies or breakdowns; and, dealing with the responsibilities of the workplace, including working with others. Workplace competency requires the ability to apply relevant skills, knowledge and attitudes consistently over time and in the required workplace situations and environments. In line with this concept of competency based curriculum focus on what is expected of a competent individual in the workplace as an outcome of learning, rather than focusing on the learning process itself. The Competency Based Training establishes a direct link between the things which trainees must learn in institutions and knowledge and skills expected from them for employability The Competency Based Training is a means of instruction which : I) Identifies the competencies required for work performance, II) Prepares the trainees through precise learning objectives, III) Is based on the realities of the world of work 3

4 When learning deals with performance type activities, it is necessary to analyse each job performed under a particular vocation. Skills required for doing a job may be manipulative and may require sequential and chronological order of performance. Therefore, teaching and learning content shall be presented in a psychological and methodological manner. Hence, identification of competencies becomes an essential exercise for planning and design a curriculum for vocational courses. The elements of competency are the basic building blocks of the unit of competency. They describe in terms of outcomes the significant functions and tasks that make up the competency. The performance criteria specify the required performance in relevant tasks, roles, skills and in the applied knowledge that enables competent performance. They are usually written in passive voice. Critical terms or phrases may be written in bold italics and then defined in range statement, in the order of their appearance in the performance criteria. The essential skills and knowledge are either identified separately or combined. Knowledge identifies what a person needs to know to perform the work in an informed and effective manner. Skills describe the application of knowledge to situations where understanding is converted into a workplace outcome. The procedure followed for this purpose is as follows: I) listing of job opportunities, II) identification of duties for each job, III) analyzing the elements of competencies and setting Performance criteria against each elements of competencies, IV) determining courses objectives, V) Preparing course content by projecting elements of competencies, Performance criteria, skills, knowledge and personality traits. 4
