trainees with the required competences in Apply 5S Procedures, Receive and Respond
to Workplace Communication, Work with Others, Demonstrate Work Values, Develop
Understanding of Entrepreneurship, Apply Quality Standards, Carry-Out Measurements
and Simple Calculations , Use Construction Hand and Power Tools, Read and Interpret
Plans and Working Drawings, Perform Bench Work, Prepare Surfaces for Construction
Works, Set out /Level Vertical and Horizontal Angles, Perform Roughing-In Activities for
Communication and Distribution Systems, Install Wiring Systems Using PVC and
Flexible conduits, Install Communication Cables, Provide Water Drainage and Install,
Service and Maintain Water Supply System and Components. The Program is consists
of seventeen (17) learning modules covering the seventeen (17) units of competence.
This teacher’s guide covers all the seventeen (17) learning modules and it will assist
you in delivering the said program and achieving its learning objectives and outcomes.
It also provides information in the organization of the learning guides and assessment
packets. The learning guides are aid to the trainees by telling them what need to do,
when and how to do it and the expectations once the learning activities are completed.
While the assessment packet guide you in developing the tools or instruments to
measure trainee’s overall achievement of the stated competence. Thus it is important
for you to understand the design of this program and the mechanics in which it shall be
delivered.
Your role as the teacher is to provide opportunities aimed at helping the trainees
develop and improve their competences. You are expected to guide and assist them as

Training Mechanics
The Outcome-Based Training is one form of an independent learning approach. This
approach enables trainees to be master of their own environment and in charge of their
learning. It is also characterized by the integration of theory and application as two
dimensions of an effective learning process. In this program, the competence-based
system is consists of a combination of lecture-discussion, individualized learning
activities, mentoring, field immersion and feedback.
In this program the trainees will be given individual learning guide to go through and
accomplish. They will be instructed through this learning guide to accomplish learning
activities as part of the mechanism for transfer of learning from the training situation to
the job situation. For each competence area, trainees will formulate a specific learning
plan as a guide for applying their learning to work setting and for their own continuing
self-development. At this point, your role as the teacher/facilitator is to guide the trainee
in preparing and accomplishing their plan.
Lecture and discussion of the topics outlined in the session plan should be performed
first before the trainees are instructed to go to the workshop. You are also required to
demonstrate the correct steps/procedures and techniques to your trainees before you
let them practice. Insure that they are practicing safely.
Most part of the training activities will be conducted in the workshop for better
development of specific skills. Aside from motivating them to relate concepts and skills
to their own work situations, make sure to provide the necessary opportunity for
competence practice and better internalization of such concepts and techniques. The
trainees should also be provided the opportunity to blend with the actual working unit in
the industry.
In this system, it is important to develop a sustained relationship with the trainees
through a continued involvement, where you are to offer support; guidance and
assistance as the trainee go through the learning activities and actual work.
With the mentoring approach, the trainees are grouped in learning teams with one
facilitator-mentor per team. Before learning session or workshop start in the morning,
each team and mentor meets to give feedback regarding their work, or how the group
improves, acquire set of skills for the members to become more effective trainees. You
are also to asses them at the end of each module. However, they have to be ready
before the assessment and it should be them to request for it.
Before the training start you should conduct an orientation session to brief the trainees
on how the training will proceed.
