Ethiopian TVET System
Model Curriculum

Preface
The reformed TVET-System is an outcome-based system. It utilizes the needs of the
labor market and occupational requirements from the world of work as the
benchmark and standard for TVET delivery. The requirements from the world of work
are analyzed and documented – taking into account international benchmarking – as
Occupational Standards (OS).

In the reformed TVET-System, Curricula and Curriculum Development play an


important role with regard to quality driven TVET-Delivery. Curricula help to facilitate
the learning process in a way, that trainees acquire the set of occupational
competences (skills, knowledge and attitude) required at the working place and
defined in the Occupational Standards (OS). Responsibility for Curriculum
Development will be given to the Regional TVET-Authorities and TVET-Providers.

This curriculum has been developed by a group of experts from Addis Ababa city
Administration land and land related institutions, Ethiopian Mapping Agency and
Ethiopian Civil Service University based on the Occupational Standard of Urban
Land Development and Management Support Operation Level II.

The curriculum development process has been initiated by Addis Ababa City
Administration and accepted by ministry of urban development and construction. The
program development is facilitated by the Addis Ababa City Administration Integrated
Land Management Information System Project Coordination Office. Ministry of
Education took its initiative in the provision of technical advice and consultation in
line with one of its mandates to provide technical support to the regions – and by the
TVET-Reform Component of the Engineering Capacity Building Program.

1.4 Duration of the TVET-Program


The Program will have duration of 405 hours including on-the-job practice or
cooperative training time and Civic Education et al.

1.5 Qualification Level and Certification


Based on the descriptors elaborated on the National TVET Qualification Framework
(NTQF) the qualification of this specific TVET Program is “Level II”.

The learner can exit after successfully completing the Modules in one level and will
be awarded the equivalent institutional certificate on the level completed. The learner
can also exit after completing any one learning module. However, only certificate of
attainment or attendance (this is institutional discretion) will be awarded.

1.6 Target Groups


Any citizen who meets the entry requirements under items 1.7 and capable of
participating in the learning activities is entitled to take part in the Program.

1.7 Entry Requirements


The prospective participants of this program are required to possess the
requirements or directive of the Ministry of Education.

1.8 Mode of Delivery


This TVET-Program is characterized as a formal program on middle level technical
skills. The mode of delivery is cooperative training. The TVET institution and
identified companies have forged an agreement to co-operate with regard to
implementation of this program. The time spent by the trainees in the industry will
give them enough exposure to the actual world of work and enable them to get
hands-on experience.

The co-operative approach will be supported with lecture-discussion, simulation and


actual practice. These modalities will be utilized before the trainees are exposed to
the industry environment.

1.10 Institutional Assessment


Two types of evaluation will be used in determining the extent to which learning
outcomes are achieved. 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 process. Formative evaluation provides the trainee with feedback
regarding success or failure in attaining learning outcomes. It identifies the specific
learning errors that need to be corrected, and provides reinforcement for successful
performance as well. For the teacher, formative evaluation provides information for
making instruction and remedial work more effective.

Summative evaluation the other form of evaluation is given when all the modules in
the unit of competence 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’.

Techniques or tools for obtaining information about trainees’ achievement include


oral or written test, demonstration and on-site observation.

1.11 TVET Trainers Profile


The teachers conducting this particular TVET Program are at least C Level and have
satisfactory practical experiences or equivalent qualifications.
