1. GENERAL INTRODUCTION
The curriculum presents a coherent and significant set of competencies to
acquire to perform the occupation of AGRICULTURE TECHNICIAN. It is designed
with an approach that takes into account the training needs, the work
situation, as well as the goals and the means to implement training.
The modules of the curriculum include a description of the expected results at the end of
training. They have a direct influence on the choice of the theoretical and practical learning
activities. The competencies are the targets of training: the acquisition of each is required for
certification.
The curriculum is the reference to carry out the assessment of learning. Assessment tools of
learning are developed on the basis of this document.
The curriculum consists of three parts. The first part is of general interest and shows the nature
and goals of a program and the key concepts and definitions used in the document. The second
part presents the qualification, its level in the qualification framework, its purpose, its rationale
and the list of modules it comprises. The third part deals with the training package. It includes
the competencies chart, the sequencing of module learning, the description of each module
and the course structure.
The pages describing the modules are the heart of a curriculum. They present the title of the
module, the length of training, the amount of credits, the context in which the competency is
performed, the prerequisite competencies, the learning units and the performance criteria.
In each module, a course structure is provided. The course structure describes the learning
outcomes (knowledge, skills and attitude) and the learning contents related to each learning
unit. Also, the learning activities and resources for learning are suggested.
Finally, the assessment specifications and guidelines are included in each module.

4. TRAINING PACKAGE
The training package includes the competencies chart, the flowchart, the
modules, the course structure, and the assessment guidelines.
3.1 Course structure
The course structure describes the learning outcomes for each learning unit. These learning
outcomes are the essential skills and knowledge to be acquired. The contents to be covered for
each learning outcome are prescriptive. The Learning Activities contain a series of suggestions,
usually with several options, that will guide the learner and the trainer.
3.2 Competencies chart
The competencies chart is a table that presents an overview of the specific competencies, the
general competencies, the work process and the time allocated to each competency. This table
provides an overall view of the competencies of the training program and allows identification
of the logical sequence of the learning of these competencies.
The competencies chart shows the relationship between general competencies and specific
competencies that are particular to the occupation, as well as the key stages of the work
process. It shows the links between the elements in the horizontal axis and those in the vertical
axis. The symbol (ο) marks a relationship between a general competency and specific
competency. The symbol (∆) indicates a relationship between a specific competency and a step
in the process of work. When the symbols are darkened, it indicates that the link is taken into
account in the description of the specific competency.
The competencies chart allows the trainer to consider the complexity of the competencies in
the organization of the progress of learning. Therefore, the vertical axis shows the specific
competencies in the order they should be acquired.
This is the starting point of the presentation of the competencies in the flowchart presented in
the following pages.

3.4 Flowchart
The flowchart of sequencing of learning is a schematic representation of the order of
acquisition of the competencies. It provides an overall planning of the entire training
programme and shows the relationship between the modules. This type of planning is to ensure
consistency and progression of learning. For each module, the flowchart shows the learning
that is already in place, the learning that is to take in parallel or later. The positions defined will
have a decisive impact on all subsequent pedagogical choices. The flowchart of the sequence of
learning of the modules of the training programme is presented on the following page.

5. ASSESSMENT GUIDELINES
4.1 Assessment Methodology
To assess knowledge, practical, and application skills through a jury system of continuous
evaluation that encourages learners to display understanding of the principles in application to
set practical tasks and their attendant theory to assess self-learning.
4.2 Portfolio
A portfolio is a collection of learner work representing learner performance. It is a folder (or
binder or even a digital collection) containing the learner’s work as well as the learner’s
evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the work. Portfolios reflect not only work
produced (such as papers and assignments, direct demonstration, indirect demonstration,
products, documents), but also it is a record of the activities undertaken over time as part of
learner learning. The portfolio is meant to show learner growth, development, and
achievements in the education system. It also shows that you have met specific learning goals
and requirements. A portfolio is not a project; it is an ongoing process for the formative
assessment. The portfolio output (formative assessment) will be considered only as enough for
complementary and general modules. Besides, it will serve as a verification tool for each
candidate that he/she attended the whole training before he/she undergoes the summative
assessment for specific modules.
There are two types of assessment (Formative Assessment and Summative/Integrated
Assessment). Each assessment has its own rule for passing to be declared competent.
Formative Assessment
This is applied on all types of modules (e.g. Complementary, General and Specific modules)
A trainee to be competent for a formative module must have at least 70% on checked
items or “yes” in indicators (e.g. questions, indicators in the checklist)
Each trainee should be competent on all formative assessments to be declared competent
on that module
All formative assessment should be declared competent before taking the
summative/integrated assessment
Section
4
-
11 | P a g e
Summative/Integrated Assessment
All Summative/Integrated assessment should match with the content of the module in the
curriculum.
Summative/Integrated Assessment is always in practical, giving it as a theoretical type of
assessment is not acceptable.
The integrated situation provided in the curriculum is a sample of the assessment to be
carried out, the Trainer/Teacher has the role of developing another one referring to the
task to be carried out in the integrated situation in accordance to the circumstances inside
school, but the integrated situation should stick on the components of a task.
During Summative/Integrated assessment, assessor panel members should be three (3).
This Summative/Integrated assessment can be seen in specific modules and the Trainee
can be declared competent by the following rules:
For YES or NO scoring of indicators in Summative/Integrated Checklist
The trainee can be declared competent based on the assessment CRITERIA and its respective
assessment indicators
Assessment Criteria Passing Line in the
assessment indicators
Quality of Process 90%
Quality of Product 100%
Relevance 90%
Rest of Criteria/ any other criteria
(example: Safety)
100%
-
12 | P a g e
Note: the Assessor should check if the 10% indicator (Quality of Process and Relevance) in
which the Trainee was not able to meet during Summative/Integrated Assessment should not
be among those indicators that can cause any hazard, or the one indicator that is performed
poorly where there is room for improvement.
1. During assessment, trainees with special needs (e.g. people with disability) should be
assisted accordingly.
2. Deputy School Manager in-charge of Studies, Class Teacher, and Trainer should consider
the status (competent/not yet competent) of trainees before delivering the next module
with pre-requisites.
3. Respect of flowchart particularly in considering the delivery of modules which has
prerequisite of a following/subsequent module is considered in issuing TVET certificate,
otherwise other modules can be given anytime.
4. All evidences during assessment (e.g. quiz, checklist, forms) should have a written form
that is compiled in the Trainer (source) and Trainee (result) portfolio. Portfolio is the
responsibility of School, Class Teacher, and Trainees. It should be given to trainees after
certification.
5. Industrial Attachment Program (IAP)
- All Trainees should finish and declared competent on all modules before taking IAP
module.
- Trainees should finish and declared competent on the 30 hours content of IAP
