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 comparable TVET-Delivery. The Curricula help to facilitate the training
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).
This curriculum has been developed by a group of professional experts from different Regional TVET
Bureaus, colleges, Industries, Institutes and universities based on the occupational standard for Rural
Land Administration Level II. The curriculum development process has been actively supported and
facilitated by Ministry of Labor and Skills.

1.5 Qualification Level and Certification


Qualification is a formal certificate issued by an official agency in recognition to that an individual has
been assessed as achieving learning outcomes or competencies to the standard specified for the
qualification title. A qualification confers official recognition of value in the labour market and in
further education and training. Based on the descriptors elaborated on the Ethiopian National TVET
Qualification Framework (NTQF) the qualification of this specific TVET Program is Certificate II
according to the level. The trainee will be awarded transcript and the institutional certificate after
successfully completing all the modules in the level.

1.6 Target Groups


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

1.7 Entry Requirements


In principle everyone should be able to access training based on the labor market. Hence the
prospective participants of this program are any citizens who possess the entry requirement directive of
the Ministry of Labor and Skills.

1.8 Mode of Delivery
This TVET-Program is characterized as a formal Program on middle level technical skills. The mode
of training delivery is in the institution and co-operative training. Cooperative training is a model of
training by the cooperation of enterprises/industries and TVET institutions whereby trainees spend
much of their time in the enterprises/industries to acquire industrial knowledge, skills, experiences, and
attitudes of the industrial environment and the remaining time in TVET institutions to acquire basic
skills and theoretical concepts. Therefore, it is necessary to make the TVET sector more effective by
strengthening a system of cooperative training accepted by the industry.

The program will employ different alternatives of cooperative training such as apprenticeships,
internship and traineeship based on the nature of the occupation, location of the TVET institutions, and
interest of the industry. In addition, in the areas where industry is not sufficiently available the
established production and service centers/learning factories in TVET institutions will be used as
cooperative training places. The Training-Institution and identified companies should have to take an
agreement to co-operate with regard to the implementation of this program.

1.9 Institutional Assessment
Two types of evaluation will be used in determining the extent to which training outcomes are
achieved. The specific training 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 training modules and form part of the training
process. Formative evaluation provides the trainee with feedback regarding success or failure in
attaining training outcomes. It identifies the specific training 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 program 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 of institutional Assessment implementation
guidelines.
Techniques or tools for obtaining information about trainees’ achievement include oral or written test,
demonstration and on-site observation. Therefore, a trainee is required to earn at least 60% to be
theoretically qualified. This result should be 18% or more when converted to 30%. Regarding
performance appraisal results, it must score at least 80% or at least 32% or more when converted to
40%. Must cooperate at least 80% out of 100% in cooperative training; When converted to 30%, it
must register 24%.
