What is CBET?
CBET stands for Competence Based Education and Training. It is a methodology used to deliver technical and vocational education and training that focuses on what the learner “should be able to do” at the end of a learning experience. It is a flexible modular based system where a learner can obtain as many modules as they wish to lead to the certification they need.
CBET is based on five essential elements:
The competencies to be acquired are carefully:
Identified
Verified (local)
Made public (transparency)
The Criteria and Conditions for assessing learner achievement are:
Based on the specified competencies
Based on Business/Industry standards
Explicitly stated and explained to learners in advance of assessment
The instructional programme:
Is designed to help learners achieve each specified competency
Provides for different student learning styles
Provides for a range of student abilities
The assessment of student competency:
Takes knowledge and attitudes into account
Requires performance as the primary source of evidence
Learners progress through the instructional programme:
At their own rate
By demonstrating the attainment of specified competencies rather than time or course completion
Who is this workshop for?
This workshop is for trainers, instructors and teachers within academic or technical institutions. It is also for Human Resources Managers, Training Officers/Managers and anyone involved in the delivery of training programmes.
