23 Describe the overall assessment strategy and specific arrangements
which have been put in place to ensure that assessment is always
valid, reliable and fair and show that these are in line with the
requirements of the NSQF.
The assessment process under SDI Scheme aims to test and certify the
competency of the persons through Assessing Bodies who seek
certification of their skills acquired informally or the persons who have been
trained at the registered VTPs. The competency assessment of the
NSQC Approved 5
candidate is being done the Assessor Competency Evaluation (ACE)

qualified assessor of the independent Assessing Bodies (AB) which is not
involved in training delivery, to ensure an impartial assessment. In the
assessment process of SDIS, identification of competency, ways to
measure the competency and deciding on the type of evidence that has to
be collected are the responsibility of the Assessing bodies whereas
administering the assessment and collecting the evidence and reporting the
results are the responsibility of the assessors. The assessment process
consists of following components
Theory Test:
o It must assess the knowledge which is essential for a person to do

the job. Without this knowledge, the person cannot be able to do the
job.
o The questions shall be normally of objective type involving selection
of correct response rather than writing sentences.
o The question paper should contain sketches/ diagrams/
photographs/ drawing to overcome the problems of reading
comprehension.
o The test shall be of short duration.
Practical Test: It shall be able to test
o Manipulative skills to handle tools and equipment.

o Speed in doing work.
o Accuracy maintained
o Quality in workmanship.
o Sequence of performance.
o Economical use of material.
o Neatness & housekeeping.
o All the competencies prescribed in the course curriculum.
The Assessment Parameters adopted during assessment:
 Knowledge of equipment, limitation of use of tools and equipment, and

methods & procedure.
 Understanding of functioning of equipment & tool, criteria to be used in
selecting tools for given job, and the process of measurement.
 Skill in finishing to required measurement, handling measurement &
calculations, handling tools and equipment with ease, finishing neatly.
 Abilities to take corrective steps, use correct work habits, take
measurements, complete the job within stipulated time, and adopt safe
practices.
 Attitude towards the work, accurate & precise work and co-workers and
