Abstract:

How competency progression and completion as a policy is played out in practice is examined in three trades: commercial cookery, carpentry, and engineering - metal fabrication. The research focuses on interactions between teachers, assessors and workplace supervisors; the different approaches used to integrate on- and off-the-job training; assessment and sign-off practices; and the ways by which workplace supervisors and teachers-assessors ensure that the outcomes meet the standards outlined in the respective training packages.
