Adiss Ababa
Preface

The reformed TVET-System is an outcome-based system. It utilizes the needs of the labor
market and occupational requirements from the world of work as the benchmark and standard
for TVET delivery. The requirements from the world of work are analyzed and documented –
taking into account international benchmarking – as occupational standards (OS).

In the reformed TVET-System, curricula and curriculum development play an important role
with regard to quality driven TVET-Delivery. Curricula help to facilitate the learning process
in a way, that trainees acquire the set of occupational competences (skills, knowledge and
attitude) required at the working place and defined in the occupational standards (OS)..

This curriculum has been developed by a group of experts from different Regional TVET-
Authorities based on the occupational standard for midwifery level III. It has the character of
a model curriculum and is an example on how to transform the occupational requirements as
defined in the respective occupational standard into an adequate curriculum.

The curriculum development process has been actively supported and facilitated by the
Ministry of Labor and Skill and Ministry of Health.

achieved. The specific learning outcomes are stated in the modules. In assessing them,
verifiable and observable indicators and standards shall be used.
