This Assessment and Training Package is a Competence-Based Education and Training
(CBET) tool and consists of three major parts:
0.1 PART I: The Occupational Profile (OP) of a FISH FARMER. This Occupational
Profile which was reviewed by Fish farmers practicing in the world of work mirrors the
duties and tasks that Fish farmers are expected to perform.
0.2 PART II: Training Modules in the form of guidelines to train Fish farmers both on the
job as well as in training centres (or combinations of both venues of learning). The
Training Modules herein have been reviewed basing on the Occupational Profile and
hence are directly relevant for employment.
0.3 PART III: Assessment Instruments in the form of performance (Practical) and written
(theory) test items that can and should be used to assess whether a person complies
with the requirements of employment as a FISH FARMER. These assessment
instruments were reviewed jointly by job practitioners (Fish farmers) and instructors
based on the occupational profile and training modules.
