The dualized mode of training delivery is preferred and recommended.
Thus programs would contain both in-school and in-industry training or
fieldwork components. Details can be referred to the Dual Training
System (DTS) Implementing Rules and Regulations.
Modular/self-paced learning is a competency-based training modality
wherein the trainee is allowed to progress at his own pace. The trainer
only facilitates the training delivery.
Peer teaching/mentoring is a training modality wherein fast learners are
given the opportunity to assist the slow learners.
Supervised industry training or on-the-job training is an approach in
training designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of the trainee
through actual experience in the workplace to acquire a specific
competencies prescribed in the training regulations.
Distance learning is a formal education process in which majority of the
instruction occurs when the students and instructors are not in the same
place. Distance learning may employ correspondence study, or audio,
video or computer technologies.
