INTRODUCTION

This instructional material comprises the Competency Based


Curriculum (CBC) and a Contextual Learning Matrix (CLM) for the
enriched curriculum of FISH PROCESSING NC II patterned after the
TESDA Training Regulation for Food Processing NC II. It is adopted by
the Department of Education in the implementation of the
Strengthened Technical - Vocational Education Program beginning
School Year 2007 – 2008.

The material will equip the students in a fishery school


specializing in Fish Processing with knowledge, values and desirable
work attitude to help them become globally competitive. It was
developed as one of the instruments of technical – vocational education
to train and produce young Filipinos who are competent workers and
eventually efficient managers and citizens who will play a pivotal role
in the socio – economic and political progress of our country. The
technical knowledge and skills acquired by every graduate from a
technical vocational high school will thoroughly prepare him for
tertiary education, entrepreneurship or the world of work.

Considering the need for a reactive curriculum that needs to


address the emerging demands of our times, these CBC and CLM are
viewed as a timely answer to the present demand for a relevant and a
responsive curriculum. They provide the certifiable skills that the
learners must acquire in order for them to be subjected to Competency
Assessment by TESDA and consequently be awarded a National
Certificate (NC I or II) or a Certificate of Competency (COC).

Technical vocational education is tasked with training and


producing young Filipino men and women who are highly competent in
order to become productive citizens and contributors to the economic
and social growth of the country. Hence the strengthened technical-
vocational education program, which is a competency based
curriculum (CBC), is a timely answer to the demands of industry for a
highly applicable curriculum.
