| dc.description.abstract | The Thesis aimed at investigating the impacts of competency based computerized assessment on the quality of occupational competency assessment and certification system implementation in TVET in Addis Ababa city administration. The study used a mixed research design, employing both quantitative and qualitative data. Purposive sampling and simple random sampling techniques have been used. The data has been collected using questionnaires and interviews; and secondary sources such as reports and policy documents are used. The finding revealed that the extent of deviation of practice of occupational competency based computerized assessment from the standard procedure and principles were beyond acceptable level. Rent seeking practices and interference of training regulator are some among major challenges. The encoding, handling and managing of assessment tool at CoC authority level is also not secured and incapability of the leading and implementing body is basically manifested by inability to implement the system as per the standard procedures and principles. Practices out of standard procedures in assessment centers like shortages of resources are indications for the incapability of proper implementations. The impacts encountering the implementation of occupational competency based computerized assessment could be mitigated through the new model of computerized assessment implementation and enhancing the leading and implementing capacity of the federal and city administration bodies. Assessment tool encoding, managing and controlling system could be established at federal level and keeping continuous capacity building and improvement activities. Utilizing resources for competency based computerized assessment based on the standard in the entire process, from registration to the assessment, is also part of sustainable solutions for the challenges. | en_US |
