Accredited Competency-Based Training

Magnaclad develops Competency Based Training (CBT) programmes that include institutional and on-the-job training. Courses are based on established programmes which are fully accredited by the South African Qualifications Authority, and have been successfully implemented by several independent training centres and corporate clients.

Modular Curriculum Design

Programmes are divided into modules that represent logical and easily identifiable components. Each module is clearly defined in terms of its objectives and its relationship with other modules in a programme.

Instructional Media Technology

Magnaclad has invested in information technology that makes it possible to supplement existing conventional training materials with multimedia content that enhances the learning experience.

Training Methodology

Training programmes incorporate elements of the best available instructional methodologies in a complete system that equips trainees with the competencies they need to qualify. This approach enables teachers, instructors and administrators to isolate and identify problems, select optimal strategies, and evaluate their effectiveness by measuring the overall performance of the training programme.

Mastery Learning

Programmes include feedback and corrective procedures that reduce the dropout rate and allow more students to achieve high levels of competency. By motivating students and helping them to correct their learning difficulties, instructors ensure that students master each learning objective before proceeding to the next objective.

Learner Controlled Instruction

Competency based training incorporates learner-controlled methods of instruction where it is appropriate to specific competencies. This gives trainees some flexibility to learn at their own pace and to take responsibility for their own progress. Instructor input is always used where necessary.

Criterion Referenced Instruction

CBT incorporates principles of Criterion Referenced Instruction (CRI) in the formulation of performance objectives and the development of observable and measurable tests.
