6 | CDA_WAH_M_I

4.2. Training Methodology

4.2.1. While it is a pre-requisite for training to include both theory and

practical components, trainers are expected to draw upon their trainer’s

training in development and delivery of the training programme and to

apply appropriate principles of training in the design and delivery of the

course.

4.2.2. There are numerous training delivery approaches for the WAH for

Managers (Integrated) training course. The training methods can be a

combination of a wide range of delivery methods. Some of the

recommended training methods include:

• Classroom instruction

• Whole class, small group and individualized learning activities

• Case studies

• Videos, other e-resources and instructional media

• Group discussions

• Problem-based learning and instruction

• Demonstrations

• Pre-course reading and pre-course assignment

4.2.3. To enhance the transfer of learning, an andragogical or adult-oriented

approach to learning is encouraged in the development and delivery of

the course. Andragogical instructional techniques are designed with the

following factors in mind:

• Adults are self-directed

• Adults have acquired a large amount of knowledge and experience

that can be tapped as a resource for learning

• On-the-job and workplace learning

• Adults show a greater readiness to learn tasks that are relevant to

the roles they have in life

7 | CDA_WAH_M_I

• Adults are motivated to learn in order to solve problems or address

needs, and they expect to immediately apply what they have learnt

to these problems and needs

4.2.4. Small group discussion: To enhance the transfer of learning at application / analytical / synthesis / evaluation level, ATP is recommended to build small group discussions into the course. The small group discussions shall be facilitated by the approved trainer(s) to discuss matter relating to the management of working at height as follow:

• Relevant roles and responsibilities of stakeholders

• Identification of WAH hazards, evaluation of risks and implementation of control measures

• Evaluation of adequacy and effectiveness of WAH control measures including the Permit-to-Work for WAH

• Execution of the Fall Prevention Plan

4.2.5. To enhance the transfer of learning within the stated course duration,

ATP shall prepare pre-course reading materials and pre-course

assignment. The pre-course reading materials and assignment shall be

sent to the learners prior to the start of the course for discussion during

the course.

4.2.6. Pre-course reading materials for this course shall include the following

as a minimum:

• Workplace Safety and Health (Work at Heights) Regulations

• Code of Practice for Working Safely at Height

• WSH Guidelines: Working Safely on Roofs

• WSH Guidelines: Anchorage, Lifelines, and Temporary Edge

Protection Systems

• WSH Guidelines: Personal Protective Equipment for Working at

Height

4.2.7. Pre-course assignment for this course shall include the preparation of a

Fall Prevention Plan following the format as stated in the Code of

8 | CDA_WAH_M_I

Practice for Working Safely at Heights or other suitable format. The

learner is expected to prepare a Fall Prevention Plan prior to the

course start date and to discuss during the course.

4.3. Training venue requirements

4.3.1 The ATP shall ensure that the classroom has adequate chairs and

writing tables that are reasonably and comfortably spaced for the class

of 20, so as to be conducive to the learning process and the purpose of

conducting the assessment.

4.3.2. The classroom must have adequate lighting and ventilation.

Emergency exit routes must be clearly marked out and briefed to the

course participants at the start of the course. Necessary equipment

5.2. Principles of assessment

Assessment will be fair, valid, reliable and flexible for all trainees without deliberate barriers against the individual.

5.2.1. Fair:

• Are the assessments criteria clear?

• Do all the trainees know what to expect from the assessment?

• Does the assessment disadvantage any trainee?

• Do the candidates have any recourse to appeal?

5.2.2. Valid:

5.3. Assessment tools and instruments

5.3.1. The ATP must conduct Written Assessment (WA)

Written Assessment (WA) – This method of assessment is quick and the most convenient to conduct. It can be used for a large class and a wide range of subjects particularly knowledge-based. It should consist of short answer and essay questions to assess the competency of the participants, in terms of the knowledge and application for WAH. The WA should cover all learning objectives that should be proportional to the important of the subject and duration.

5.3.2. The time allocated for the written assessment per participant is 2 hours 30 minutes.

5.4.1. Assessment must be strictly conducted in accordance with the assessment plan. In particular, each participant must complete all the assessment requirements in the given time allocated.

5.4.2. The assessor shall assess the competency of the participant based on the evidence gathered. The evidence for each of the assessment instrument is given in the suggested response to the WA and the checklist accompanying the PP, RP and CS.

5.4.3. Any participant who fails to meet the minimum pass mark requirement will have to re-attempt the entire course.

5.5. Recording and reporting of assessment outcome

5.5.1. All assessment outcomes must be accurately recorded in the assessment summary record form.

5.5.2. Assessment outcome must be conveyed to the candidate at the end of the assessment. Candidate must acknowledge the assessment

11 | CDA_WAH_M_I
