What is CBTA?
On the surface, CBTA (Competency-Based Training & Assessments) may look like just a slightly different training solution compared to what existed before. The truth is, not only is CBTA a complex (but amazing) training framework, it also requires a great deal of work to set-up properly and effectively. Not that you need to worry, Scandlearn has extensive experience working with CBTA and we're here to guide you every step of the way.
Competency
The first part of the CBTA concept deals with a learner’s competency, or how well they are able to apply what they learn in the real world. This is often measured using a system called KSA, which stands for:
Knowledge: The information that a person must know.
Skills: The practiced application of knowledge.
Attitude: How their outlook influences their performance.
Competency is a person’s understanding of what they have learned and being able to apply that knowledge to perform practical tasks safely.
Assessment
The method that a CBTA system uses to measure a learner’s competency is called assessment. This is achieved by mixed assessments in different methods that challenge a learner during the course lessons. These assessments are strategically placed throughout the course and presented to the learner at different stages to asses their competency-level in the course curriculum.
Approaching courseware in this way makes for a far more productive learning experience. Resulting in a deeper understanding of the important theoretical content that is necessary for learners to succeed.
