WELCOME TO COMPETENCY BASED

TRAINING

What is CBT?

CBT is a training delivery

approach that focuses on the
competency development of the
learner as a result of the training.
 Ten Principles of CBT
1. The training is based on curriculum
developed from the competency standards
2. Learning is competency-based or modular in
structure

3. Training delivery is individualized and self-

paced
4. Training is based on work that must be
performed
5. Training materials are directly related to the
competency standards and the curriculum
6. Assessment of learners is based in the collection
of evidences of work performance based on industry
or organizational required standards

7. Training is based both on and off the job components

8. The system allows Recognition of Prior Learning

(RPL)
9. The system allows for learners to enter and exit
programs at different times and levels and to receive an
award for competencies attained at any point.

10. Approved training programs are nationally

accredited
 * Role of Trainer
1. Serves as a team member to
determine what is to be learned

2. Stimulates trainees‟ motivation.

3. Manages learning: a consultation

rather than a provider of information; a
facilitator of the of the facilitator of the
learning
4. Diagnose and solves learning
problems

5. Evaluates student achievement

6. Assist learners to obtain individualized

rewards
7. Assist each trainee in designing a
personalized plan of study.
8. Installs confidence in the learner
by providing experiences where
learners may succeed

9. Serves as a model for desirable

work habits, attitudes and tasks
performance in the occupational field

10.Spends more time interacting with

students on a 1:1 or small group
basis
11.Helps those students who really need
help

12.Accepts responsibility along with the

student for the tasks learned or not
learned.
* Role of Trainee
1. Trainees may select what they want to learn
and when they want to learn it, within reason.

2. Trainees learn at their own rate within

program guidelines. They may speed up, slow
down, stop or even repeat a task.

3. Trainees may request to receive credit for

what they already know. This is done either
through pre-testing or through a review o a
task list completed at another training site,
style and other needs.
4. Trainees may choose how they want to
learn-individually, on a one-to- one
basis, in small group, in large groups or
with audio-visuals.

5. Trainees are responsible for what they

learn and when they learn it.

6. Trainees decide when they are ready to

perform each task or demonstrate
mastery of learning to a job-like level of
proficiency before receiving credit for
the task.
7. Trainees help develop personalized
prescription for learning worked out
cooperatively and based upon what the
students already knows, his preference for
learning, learning
8. Trainees compete against prescribed job
standards and not against other students
and are graded on achievement of the
standards or criteria of each task.

9. Trainees know “up front”, before

instruction begins what they are expected
to know and do to complete the program.
10. Trainees evaluate their own progress to see
how well they are doing.

11. Trainees move freely in the workshop,

laboratory and or training center.
12. Trainees know they will be rated mainly on
performance, while paper and pencil tests
will be used mainly to check their knowledge
of the task.

13. Trainees learn according to their interest,

needs and abilities – not according to
teacher timelines and expediency.
 What is a CBLM?

A CBLM is a printed instructional aid

that:
 provide trainers with guidance and resources
for conducting or supporting learning
activities
 serve as guide or resource for ‘self paced’
learning
 providing learners and assessors with
resources for understanding and completing
assessments
 HOW TO USE THE COMPETENCY BASED
LEARNING MATERIAL

The module contains training materials

and activities for you to complete.
 The unit of competency in the CBLM
contains the knowledge, skills and
attitudes required for the course. This is
one of the common modules leading to a
National Certificate level II (NC II).
 You are required to go through a series
of learning activities in order to complete
each of the learning outcomes of the
module. In each learning outcome there
are Information Sheets, Operation
Sheets and Job Sheets
 If you have questions, don’t hesitate to ask
your facilitator for assistance.
Evaluation System using the CBLM

• Written Test
• Demonstration
• Oral Interview
 Adjectival Grade

• C – Competent

• NYC – Not Yet Competent
