Institutional Competency Evaluation
Learning Objective:
For the purpose of CBT, assessments are usually given for the
following purposes:
Task Skill
1. Reliability
Length of the test – the longer the test the higher the reliability.
Difficulty of the test – the bigger the spread of the scores the more
reliable the measured difference is likely to be. Items should not be
too easy or too difficult.
is analyzing the degree of difficulty and the index of discrimination of the test
items. Standard written test items should not be too easy nor too difficult
and it should discriminate those who learned from those who did not learn
anything.
2. Validity
Directions;
Difficulty of items;
Objectivity
Discrimination
The test must have the right length and level of sophistication to do
the job.
Evidence Plan
Written Test
Performance Test
In this lesson you will learn how to prepare the evidence plan of your
competency.
In making an Evidence Plan you should have the Competency Standards (CS) of the
chosen competency and the Evidence Plan Template.
Critical aspects of competency are the performance criteria that are
listed in the evidence guide of the Competency Standard (CS) as critical.
These criteria are required to be demonstrated by the trainee for him to
be evaluated as competent. You should prepare an institutional
competency assessment tool that will show these evidences.

Learning Objective:
The Evidence plan is a plan for the institutional evaluation tool. After
preparing the evidence plan, we are now ready to prepare for the
development of the other parts of the evaluation tool such as the written
test.
To ensure the validity of your written test, you should prepare a table
of specification so that all contents to be tested have a representative
question.
Example:
Tensile strength
Welding position
Material thickness

It may be that at this point you want to compare the test(s) provided
by the textbook publisher with your completed table of specifications. If they
match and you think the questions are well written, you may decide to use
the test (or parts of the test) provided with the text. On the other hand, you
may find that it will be necessary for you to create a test to provide an
accurate assessment of what the students in your class have learned.

Note: This is a sample. The number of items is not prescribed. The trainer should
decide on the number of items based on the contents of the competency.
Learning Objectives:
Construct test items more than the number required for a set of
Competency Assessment Instrument. This will facilitate item banking
and will give an allowance for correction when the test items will be
deliberated whereby some items might be deleted.
Assemble the items for the test. After grouping the items by type,
arrange them such that related items are together. The reason for this
is obvious, it saves examinee time as the test is taken and it will be
easier to point out where the examinee had failed. In assembling items
for the test the speciation table should be followed.
Write clear and concise directions for each type of questions. The
direction should tell the examinee what to do, how to do it and where
Study every aspect of the assembled test. After the test is assembled
and directions are written, it is a good policy to lay it aside for several
days, then pick it up again and review each part critically. Consider
each item from the point of view of the workers who will take the
competency assessment. Try to determine those items that are
ambiguous. Check the grammar and be sure that the words used will
be understood by the workers who will take the competency
assessment.
● Put all of an item on the same page. Avoid splitting a matching exercise or
response to a multiple-choice question.
● Number continuously.
● Write clear, precise directions.
● For ease of correcting, place blanks for responses to one side of the paper, or
use a separate answer sheet.
● Devise your items so that they require the trainee to actually apply things
learned rather than merely recalling or recognizing facts.
● Make certain that the type of the test items used for measuring each objective
is the one that will measure the objective.
● Check to make sure that no item can be answered simply by referring to the
other items. Make an item independent upon the answer of another
● Do not include an item for which the answer is obvious to a person who does
not know the subject matter.
● Word the items in the simplest manner possible. Confine the items used to the
vocabulary level of the examinee. States questions clearly and eliminate
ambiguous items.
● Arrange the items so that responses will not form a particular pattern.
● Use true-false items only when there is a clear-cut true or false answer to the
question.
● Construct items that are entirely true or entirely false.
● Make the alternative grammatically consistent with the stem and with each
other.
● Avoid verbal association between the stem and the correct
response(grammatical clues)
● Construct items with a single best item.
Avoid using “all of the above” and “none of the above” unless these
are used in questions where “all of the above” and “none of the
above” are not desirable responses.
Avoid using opposite as possible answers.
Performance Evaluation
A. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
This refers to the overall conduct of the test (before, during and after)
which concerns both the testing officer and the examinee. This part of the
competency assessment specifies the does and don’ts inside the testing
area.
The format of general instructions include:
Performance or what must be done
B. SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS
Skills:
The test coverage must be consistent with the job description and
skills requirements.
the test statement must specify the exact time within which he
examinee is expected to finish task and the tools/equipment that will
be issued to the examinee.
The test should be feasible. Do not design tests which makes use of
rare or too expensive equipment.
B. SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS

Questioning Tool
Learning Objectives:
Questioning Tool
Infrequent events may arise from the job that would need the
worker to adjust. These are the contingency management
skills questions that you need to construct to verify this
dimension of the competency.
