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).
This curriculum has been developed by a group of experts from different Regional
TVET-Authorities based on the Occupational Standard for Basic
Electrical/Electronics Equipment Servicing – Level I. It has the character of a model
curriculum and is an example on how to transform the occupational requirements
as defined in the respective Occupational Standard into an adequate curriculum.
The curriculum development process has been actively supported and facilitated by
the Ministry of Education – 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.
TVET-Program Design
1.1. TVET-Program Title: Basic Electrical/ Electronics Equipment Servicing–
Level I
1.2. TVET-Program Description
The Program is designed to develop the necessary knowledge, skills and attitude of
the learners to the standard required by the OS. The contents of this program are in
line with the Occupational Standard (OS). Learners who successfully completed the
Program will be qualified to work as a Basic Electrical/Electronics Equipment
Servicing with competencies elaborated in the respective OS. Graduates of the
Program will have the required qualification to work in the Electronics/Electrical
Sector in the field of Basic Electrical/Electronics Equipment Servicing
The prime objective of this training program is to equip the learners with the
identified competences specified in the OS. Graduates are therefore expected to
Service Basic Electrical/Electronics Equipment in accordance with the
performance criteria described in the OS.
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.

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’.
For this particular TVET Program, trainers / facilitators are expected to have
completed 1st Degree in related fields of studies and have satisfactory practical
experiences or equivalent qualification
