 Methods of Delivery

Hence,
We are now moving from the traditional topic
based teaching to outcome-based education

CT050-3-3-PROJECT MANAGEMENT INTRODUCTION TO PROJECT MANAGEMENT

 Outcomes Based Education (OBE)

OBE is education based on producing

particular educational outcomes that:
Focus on what students can actually do after they
are taught
Expect all learners / students to successfully
achieve particular (sometimes minimum) level of
knowledge and abilities.
