Competency
1.1. Identified the problem
1.2. Determined the fundamental causes of the problem
1.3. Determined the correct / preventive action
1.4. Provided recommendation to manager
These aspects may be best assessed using a range of
scenarios / case studies / what ifs as a stimulus with a walk
through forming part of the response. These assessment
activities should include a range of problems, including new,
unusual and improbable situations that may have happened.
2. Resource 2.1. Assessment will require access to an operating plant
Implications over an extended period of time, or a suitable method
of gathering evidence of operating ability over a range
of situations. A bank of scenarios / case studies /
what ifs will be required as well as bank of questions
which will be used to probe the reason behind the
observable action.
3. Methods of Competency may be assessed through:
Assessment
3.1. Case studies on solving problems in the workplace
3.2. Observation
The unit will be assessed in a holistic manner as is practical
and may be integrated with the assessment of other relevant
units of competency. Assessment will occur over a range of
situations, which will include disruptions to normal, smooth
operation. Simulation may be required to allow for timely
assessment of parts of this unit of competency. Simulation
should be based on the actual workplace and will include
walk through of the relevant competency components.
4. Context for 4.1. In all workplace, it may be appropriate to assess this
Assessment unit concurrently with relevant teamwork or operation
units.

SECTION 3 TRAINING ARRANGEMENTS

This set of standards provides Technical and Vocational Education and Training
(TVET) providers with information and other important requirements to consider when
designing training programs for Mechatronics Servicing NC III.

This includes information on curriculum design; training delivery; trainee entry


requirements; tools and equipment; training facilities; and trainer’s qualification and
institutional assessment.

3.1 CURRICULUM DESIGN

TESDA shall provide the training on the development of competency-based


curricula to enable training providers develop their own curricula with the components
mentioned below.

Delivery of knowledge requirements for the basic, common and core units of
competency specifically in the areas of mathematics, science/technology,
communication/language and other academic subjects shall be contextualized. To this
end, TVET providers shall develop a Contextual Learning Matrix (CLM) to accompany
their curricula.

Course Title: Mechatronics Servicing NC Level: NC III

Nominal Training Duration: 32 hrs – Basic Competencies


60 hrs – Common Competencies
104 hrs – Core Competencies
------------
196 hrs

Course Description:

This course is designed to develop & enhance the knowledge, skills, & attitudes of
a mechatronics and automation technician, in accordance with industry standards. It
covers the basic & common competencies in addition to the core competencies such as
developing mechatronics and automation control circuits and PLC application programs,
developing motion control and system configuration on mechatronics and automation
system as well as maintaining and repairing PLC-based mechatronics and automation
sytems.

(The nominal duration of 196 hours covers only the basic, common and core units at
Mechatronics Servicing NC III level. TVET providers can however, offer a longer,
ladderized course covering both Mechatronics Servicing NC II and NC III basic, common
and core units. )

SECTION 3 TRAINING ARRANGEMENTS

This set of standards provides Technical and Vocational Education and Training
(TVET) providers with information and other important requirements to consider when
designing training programs for Mechatronics Servicing NC III.

This includes information on curriculum design; training delivery; trainee entry


requirements; tools and equipment; training facilities; and trainer’s qualification and
institutional assessment.

3.1 CURRICULUM DESIGN

TESDA shall provide the training on the development of competency-based


curricula to enable training providers develop their own curricula with the components
mentioned below.

Delivery of knowledge requirements for the basic, common and core units of
competency specifically in the areas of mathematics, science/technology,
communication/language and other academic subjects shall be contextualized. To this
end, TVET providers shall develop a Contextual Learning Matrix (CLM) to accompany
their curricula.

Course Title: Mechatronics Servicing NC Level: NC III

Nominal Training Duration: 32 hrs – Basic Competencies


60 hrs – Common Competencies
104 hrs – Core Competencies
------------
196 hrs

Course Description:

This course is designed to develop & enhance the knowledge, skills, & attitudes of
a mechatronics and automation technician, in accordance with industry standards. It
covers the basic & common competencies in addition to the core competencies such as
developing mechatronics and automation control circuits and PLC application programs,
developing motion control and system configuration on mechatronics and automation
system as well as maintaining and repairing PLC-based mechatronics and automation
sytems.

(The nominal duration of 196 hours covers only the basic, common and core units at
Mechatronics Servicing NC III level. TVET providers can however, offer a longer,
ladderized course covering both Mechatronics Servicing NC II and NC III basic, common
and core units. )

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TR – MECHATRONICS SERVICING NC III (Amended) Promulgated June 16, 2015 Page 60
4.1.6.1. Holders present the evidence that they are currently or have been
employed in mechatronics and/or industrial automation job for the
past three (3) years;

4.1.6.2. Holders pass the performance assessment of the new COC#2


(Develop Motion Control and System Configuration) under
Mechatronics and Automation Servicing NC III.

4.1.7. The conduct of assessment and issuance of certificates shall follow the
procedures manual and implementing guidelines developed for the purpose.

4.2 COMPETENCY ASSESSMENT REQUISITE

4.2.1 Self-Assessment Guide. The self-assessment guide (SAG) is accomplished


by the candidate prior to actual competency assessment. SAG is a pre-
assessment tool to help the candidate and the assessor determine what
evidence is available, where gaps exist, including readiness for
assessment.

This document can:

a. Identify the candidate’s skills and knowledge


b. Highlight gaps in candidate’s skills and knowledge
c. Provide critical guidance to the assessor and candidate on the evidence
that need to be presented
d. Assist the candidate to identify key areas in which practice is needed or
additional information or skills that should be gained prior `

4.2.2 Accredited Assessment Center. Only Assessment Center accredited by


TESDA is authorized to conduct competency assessment. Assessment
centers undergo a quality assured procedure for accreditation before they
are authorized by TESDA to manage the assessment for National
Certification.

4.2.3 Accredited Competency Assessor. Only accredited competency assessor is


authorized to conduct assessment of competence. Competency assessors
undergo a quality assured system of accreditation procedure before they
are authorized by TESDA to assess the competencies of candidates for
National Certification.
