Objective

The Financial Secretary announced in the 2013-14 Budget to allocate from that year on additional resources to Industry Training Advisory Committees (ITACs) set up under the Qualifications Framework (QF) to launch new initiatives to facilitate further development of QF in industries. Production of SCS-based Training Packages, one of the new initiatives, aims to encourage more enterprises and education and training providers to develop QF-recognised courses to address the training needs of industries, and to help them save on the resources needed to develop full sets of training materials.

SCS-based Training Packages

Using selected units of competency (UoCs) which correspond with a job role in the industry, an SCS-based Training Package outlines the essential elements for a learning programme, offering for reference the contents of learning, assessment guidelines, as well as supporting and reference materials. Training Packages are SCS-based, with learning and assessment materials derived from the selected UoCs which correspond with the job role and function. The performance requirements in the UoCs are applied in the learning outcome of the Training Package, and the learning and assessment materials correspond with the learning outcome.

A Training Package exemplifies the design of course structure, and comes with suggestions on study materials such as case studies and illustrations. It contains not only the concepts, principles and application processes of the job function concerned, but also good practices that are widely adopted in the industry. Assessment materials include sample tasks or activities, methods and context of assessment, outcome standards and performance rubric that are appropriate to the contents of learning.

The contents of each Training Package are developed for the specific learner profile, mode of learning and assessment method, which can be used as reference in course designs. Enterprises and education and training providers who wish to use it as a blueprint for course development should adjust the relevant contents according to the learning objectives, target learners, entry requirements such as academic level and experience, as well as the mode of learning. For a learning programme to become QF-recognised, it must successfully pass the quality-assurance process of the Hong Kong Council for Accreditation of Academic and Vocational Qualifications.
