Transcript of AgExcel Tutor Conference 2013 After TROQ What will the new world look like?
TROQ – Targeted Review of Qualifications.
• Review of all current qualifications on the framework, national and local ones.
• Attempting to reduce the number, duplication and confusion between qualifications
• All current qualifications to disappear over next 3 – 4 years and be replaced by new ones.
New qualifications will ensure that:• Qualifications are relevant and fit-for-purpose
• Skills, knowledge and competencies of graduates from each qualification are clear, especially to employers
• There are clear pathways to future qualifications for learners/employers
• There are clear employment pathways
• There is a more consistent approach to quality assurance
TROQ process
Governance group formed to oversee process
Working groups formed for 6 different industries
Pastoral Pork/Poultry/Apiculture Water
Wool harvesting Equine Rural servicing
Extensive consultation done with industry as to their needs, roles within the industry and skills, knowledge and attributes needed for those roles.
TROQ process (cont) Draft graduate outcomes written and sent out for
consultation.
Graduate outcomes include Strategic purpose statement Graduate profiles Education pathway Employment pathway
Proposed qualifications sent to NZQA for pre-approval (approval to develop).
TROQ process (cont) Quals returned from NZQA with feedback, and
conditions for further development
Based on this feedback, proposed final qualification documents were developed and discussed at Pastoral working group meeting
After this meeting, and a further round of consultation, the qualification documents were finalised and submitted to NZQA for approval in July
New qualifications – What is different?
• Made up of high level graduate outcomes. What a graduate can “know/do/be”.
• Flexible programmes for delivery
• Based around job roles in the workplace
• Not necessarily unit standard based
How will it work?
• Qualifications are collaboratively developed by all stakeholders, based on industry needs
• Providers and ITO’s develop Learning programmes (providers) or Training programmes (ITO’s) towards the qualification
• Programmes will have to be approved by NZQA and have to show how learners will achieve the Qualification
Assessment of Graduate Outcomes.• Assessment should be conducted in a holistic
manner
• Assessing learner’s capability in overall tasks, not the sum of the parts
• Not focussing on detail but more task oriented
• Use naturally occurring evidence wherever possible
• What is important is the application of skills and knowledge to actual workplace tasks and activities
