Ethiopian TVET System
Revised Curriculum 4
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 different Regional TVET-
Authorities based on the Occupational Standard for Bar Bending and concreting.
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.

1.9 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.
