SYNOPSIS

This Course of Study (CoS) is an integral component of the Training Manual (TM) used

by Accredited Training Centers (ATC) of Department of Skills Development (DSD)

when implementing their approved training programmes. It is the bridge that links the

expected knowledge and performance objectives in Green Technology Compliances

(program code: Z-050). Its purpose is to standardized content and practical training

delivery among training providers. Module developers and trainers are to utilize this

CoS in developing their in-house instructional materials or in DSD environment, a

Written Instructional Materials (WIM).

This CoS in Green Technology Compliances (Z-050 CoS) shall contain essential

information on the scope and coverage of knowledge, expected performance

objectives, trainee entry requirements and performance assessment methodology.

Module developers and trainers are to use it as a guideline in which to build units of

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Since 2008, Malaysia is steadfast and committed towards the development of a green economy.

Every aspect of life in Malaysia has started to orientate towards green endeavours. This green

orientation has been applied to many different sectors in Malaysia, especially in manufacturing,

services, government and households. In mainstreaming green, Malaysian government has chosen

the green development through deployment of technology. Malaysia has abundance of naturalresources and using technologies help to reduce, reuse, repair and recycle these resources

efficiently. Solar photovoltaic technologies generate electricity, while rain harvest technologies are

most ideal in Malaysia with tropical rains.

The Department of Skills Development (DSD) supports this development with the introduction of

skills training programmes in Green Technologies. One of the skills programme is Green

Technology Compliances (program code: Z-050) under the National Competence Standards (NCS).

The sole aim is to complement the National Green Technologies Policies under Strategic Thrust

No.3 by intensifying human capital development on green technologies. Under the Z-050

programme, the purpose is to up-skill Malaysians citizens with the knowledge, abilities, skills and

3.0 PURPOSE/USAGE

A CoS will provide module developers and trainers with a guide and direction when preparing

training materials or Written Instructional Materials (WIM) for the Z-050 Green Technology

Compliances programme. This CoS contains:

i. information on the training modules titles to be conducted and the sequence of the learning

delivery, for a learner to achieve the skill competency required;

ii. a set of Abilities which provides a comprehensive description on the knowledge to bedelivered for each training module;

iii. information pertaining to the scope and coverage of knowledge to be delivered and the

abilities to be demonstrated;

iv. methodology to assist module developers and trainers in course planning, training

implementation, evaluation and monitoring the effectiveness of course delivery;

v. methodology to carry out assessment on the understanding of knowledge delivered;

vi. guidelines to conduct assessment to determine competency achievement by trainees; and,

vii. new methodology in assisting module developers and trainers on developing instructional

manual or Written Instructional Manual (WIM) by using the Internet keyword search method,

TRAINEE ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

The NCS Green Technology Compliances (Z-050) is a competent skill training

and certification of personnel within the field of Malaysias Green Technology.

Being part of the National Competency Standards (NCS), the defined skill

abilities are to be incorporated into any vocational skill certificate relevant with

green technology.

In pursuant on the greener and cleaner Malaysia, Department of Skill

Development (DSD) encourages Malaysian citizens and foreign residents to up-

skill themselves with green technologies. The trainee entry pre-requirements

are set as with followings:

a. Open to all Malaysian citizens with minimum age of 16 years;

PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT

The Performance Assessment is an appraisal method designed to judge

trainees abilities to use specific knowledge and demonstrate newly acquired

abilities or skills. The assessment strategies being utilized are divided into three

(3) distinct parts:

(a) a performance task tasks are assignments (including individual and

group case-studies, solution presentations and others) designed to

assess a trainees ability to use newly acquired knowledge and abilities,

as well as manipulating equipment (such as laboratory equipment,computers, internet search engines, documents and others);

(b) a format in which the trainee must responds trainee can either

complete the assigned task in front of the Internal Assessor or use a

written response sheet on paper or electronically;


10/74

adaptation of trainees' knowledge and abilities/skills. The assessment oftrainee's knowledge will eventually focuses on the performance and the result

during assessment sessions.

Assessment Method 1: Checkl ists for Highly Structured Tasks

In green technologies, some tasks require systematic procedures that do not

yield multiple entry points or exit points. In this case, a check list system can be

appropriately used by an assessor or a highly-structured trainee-answer sheet

in which each aspect of the procedure and result is described in detail. It is

often found the highly-structured format useful when working with large-

enrollment classes. Highly -structured assessment tasks provide students with

step-by-step instructions to follow. In contrast, less structured assessment

tasks give students more opportunity to make judgments in determining the

procedures needed to solve the problem.


11/74

Assessment Method 3:Written Examination

Performance assessment must include a final written examination that is set in

the National Competence Standards (NCS). The examination paper must be

structured with either multiple-choice, open or close-ended question or an

assignment essay.
