Approval Sheet

The National Competency Standards for National Skills Certificate-I, II & III in Apparel Screen Printing [Ready-Made Garments] was first developed in 2013 under the Skills Development Project ADB Loan 2425 – BAN (SF). Later with the request from the RMG sector and the change in demand, technology and diversity the UoCs were reviewed and reformulated sub-sector wise in 2016 under the ILO Centre of Excellence Project for RMG Sector in association with the Technical sub Committee for Apparel

Screen Printing and BTEB. The revised sets of UoCs are approved by the Bangladesh Technical Education Board (BTEB) upon the endorsement of the ISC at a meeting held on 17-06-2016 at the office of the Industry Skills Council.

The Standard was also approved by Standard and Curriculum Development

Committee (SCDC) on 19-06-2016 at BTEB - NTVQF Cell.

Preface The readymade garments industry acts as the backbone of our economy and as a

catalyst for the development of our country. Bangladesh takes pride in the sector that

has been fetching billions of dollars as export earnings and creating jobs for millions of

people in the country. The country's readymade garments (RMG) sector has been

experiencing a serious shortage of skilled workforce. Such a shortage has emerged as

a major constraint to realization of the sector's true growth potential, in terms of

productivity and production of high end apparels.

Skills development vis-à-vis the TVET system has a large role to play in economic

growth and social development as workforce provider to the labor market and as

provider of skills to those who are looking for employment. In case of Bangladesh, the

TVET sector needs major reforms to ensure that issues of quality and capacity,

relevance, and access are properly addressed.

The Directorate of Technical Education (DTE) with funding from the Swedish retail

giant H&M and Sweden Government is implementing a project known as “Establishing

Centre of Excellence (COE) for RMG to implement certified training within the national

skills development framework of Bangladesh”. The main target of the Centre of

Excellence project is to establish a replicable industry-driven training and support

services model for the Bangladesh Ready Made Garment sector while it rigorously

works to improve the relevance of TVET in labor market by introducing competency-

based training system: a system that proceeds from the development of a

qualifications framework, competency standards, curriculum, training delivery,

assessment, and quality assurance mechanisms in order to develop a competitive

workforce.

The development of competency standards is regarded as the heart of a competency-

based training regime. Each standard defines sets of knowledge, skills and attitudes

(KSAs) that a Bangladeshi trainee should be able to demonstrate at a recognized level

of competence. It provides a common framework of outcomes between the labor and

education sectors, as well as among workers, trainers and trainees.

In the process of review and development of UoCs, Industry Skills Council (ISC),

BGMEA/BKMEA were organized to determine the competencies expected of an

occupation in Bangladesh. An Industry Skills Technical Committee was formed by

ISC/BGMEA who are real technical experts of the industry, performed review of

current documents/UoCs, analysed based on their rich experiences in the field, and

proposed a revised set of UoCs as per the real demand of the sector. National

consultants, ILO experts/professionals and BTEB experienced resource personnel

were involved in the process while competency standards of Sri Lanka, Philippines,

Australia, Korea, Malaysia, Maldives and other countries were examined.

A series of workshops – analysis, review and finalization - were conducted to ensure a

workable National Competency Standards for the occupation. Further, a validation

instrument was developed and administered to the top industry performers to verify

and confirm the draft being developed. It is hoped that this document reflects the real

needs of the industry thereby providing a concrete basis for the curriculum

development and assessment. In such a way, the development of relevant and

competent workforce is not farfetched.
