This case study is one component of a national competency-based training pilot project focusing on assessment and competency-based training (CBT), with particular reference to teaching and learning approaches. The project was recently undertaken by the Office of Vocational Education, Training and Employment Commission, Queensland, and received funding assistance from the Department of Employment, Education and Training (DEET). One research strategy employed in the project involved the completion of five case studies, which examined CBT and assessment issues in different ‘real life’ contexts. These contexts included public and enterprise providers of training where CBT had been operational for some time. The case study reported in this paper examines CBT and assessment issues within the Stanwell Skills Development Programme, which provides training at the Stanwell Power Station in Rockhampton, Queensland. This case study highlights some of the challenges faced by an enterprise provider of training in the area of assessment and CBT. Show less

This paper reports a study which investigated the impact of institutional influences upon the attendance behaviour of part-time students in a certificate course in TAFE. Students’ satisfaction levels with four institutional influences were surveyed: curriculum relevance, student learning factors, student/lecturer relations, and administrative policies and procedures. The study found that dropout respondents recorded significantly lower satisfaction levels that persisters in the case of student/lecturer relations and curriculum relevance. The findings suggest that key institutional variables are strongly linked with the attendance behaviour of part-time students in TAFE. Show less
