 HOW TO USE THE COMPETENCY-BASED CURRICULUM (CBC)

Welcome to the CBC on ________________, a qualification under the

________________sector.

This essential training document was prepared by the Curriculum and Training Aids
Development Division (CTADD) to provide complete guidance in the conduct of TVET
programs in the forecited qualification. This may serve as a basis for the groundwork and
actual implementation of a training program as well as a reference for program registration
under the UTPRAS. It also contains the minimum specifications for a training program
which TVIs must adhere to prior to integrating additional contents.

Sourced from the stipulations in and analysis of the promulgated Training Regulation
of the qualification, and the Competency Standards of the Basic Competencies integrated
with 21st Century Skills, this CBC sets out the specifications for a course or subject
(module) which describe all the training experiences that a trainee or learner undergoes
which leads to an appropriate certification. It generally includes the following components,
namely:

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

Clear statements of what a learner can be expected to know,

Learning Outcomes
understand and/or do as a result of a learning experience. (IRR of
(LOs)
RA No. 10968)

Specific knowledge, skills and attitude that are to be addressed

Contents
within a learning outcome.

These are the conditions under which the learning and

assessment will take place. This can include a list of tools and
Conditions equipment, access to learning resources and equipment manuals,
and type of facility. This should specify the scope or range of the
equipment and facilities to be assessed.
Instructional strategies to be utilized to facilitate the transfer of
Methodologies knowledge to the learners allowing them to perform the given tasks
or work activities according to defined standards.

Assessment Techniques used in gathering different types of evidence to

Methods evaluate a candidate for a particular qualification.

In addition, the nominal duration of the program indicates the contact hours between
the learner and the trainer, regardless of the modality, either face-to face or online
synchronous activities. The Supervised Industry Learning (SIL), or training under a
workplace environment, is also included.

The TVIs are required to conduct an assessment per module based on the
assessment criteria specified in the CBC. Learners have to complete all the requirements
(in a form of formative assessments or performance tasks, among others) of a competency
prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Achievement. This essential document allows a
learner to proceed to the remaining modules of the succeeding competency/ies.

Concurrently, a summative institutional assessment must be administered to learners for
them to proceed in taking up the corresponding National Competency Assessment.

With the rise of dynamic and emerging technologies brought about by area-based/demand-
based requirements in the regional and provincial levels, the users of this CBC may
constantly review and update this depending on the needs of their industry counterparts to
ensure the delivery of quality TVET programs.

What is Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC)?

 A competency-based curriculum is a framework or guide for the

subsequent detailed development of competencies, associated
methodologies, training and assessment resources.

 The CBC specifies the outcomes which are consistent with the
requirements of the workplace as agreed through the industry or
community consultations.

 CBC can be developed immediately when competency standards exist.

 When competency standards do not exist, curriculum developers need

to clearly define the learning outcomes to be attained. The standard of
performance required must be appropriate to industry and occupational
needs through the industry/enterprise or specified client group
consultations.

These materials are available in both printed and electronic copies.
