Effective Teaching Methodologies (Online Delivery)

1617/ICPMLD
9-12 April 2017, Maldives
In-Country Program

| Program Focus |

TVET system in Maldives is a demand driven, accessible, beneficiary financed, and quality assured system that meets the needs of society and economy. However, the sector and system is at its infant stage, and is in an immense need for capacity building of the standard writers, trainers, and assessors especially in the area of competency-based training and assessment. Being comprised of islands scattered in the Indian Ocean, online delivery is the ideal method of reaching the communities in the islands of Maldives. The concept of competency-based training and assessment is quite new in Maldives, and hence acquiring knowledge and expertise on delivering TVET training online will be a huge asset for sustaining and expanding TVET system in Maldives. This delivery system may also be used as benchmark and model for countries or communities having the same topographical set-up as Maldives has.
