From a philosophical perspective, the Introduction to Competency-Based Education and Training (CBET) intervention is grounded in the belief that those who facilitate training interventions, regardless of content specification, must effectively perform many tasks to ensure success. Indeed, some of the tasks to be performed are contextually specific and, therefore, will be unique to the content area. On the other hand, some tasks are specific to the teaching-learning process and must be effectively and systematically carried out to ensure attainment of desired learning outcomes using a CBET approach. Such tasks, it is widely accepted, are better performed when informed by a grounded understanding of theoretical and best-practice strategies for planning and delivering training.
The Introduction to Competency-Based Education and Training intervention has been designed primarily for instructors who are working in the TVET system (including community-based training institutions).
