C.           Career Technical Competencies

 

1.      Job Corps instructors have the autonomy to decide the sequence of instruction, selection of curricula (including textbooks and electronic courseware), instructional materials, and equipment/tools.

 

2.      When a student performs a task listed in the “DUTIES AND TASKS” column, the instructor should rate the student’s level of performance by circling 1, 2, or 3 in the “PERFORMANCE RATING” column.

 

3.      Updates must occur, at a minimum, on a weekly basis.

 

      Rating Scale:        3 – Proficient and able to teach others: The student consistently performs the task accurately without supervision. The student possesses sufficient skill to teach the task to others.

                                    2 – Proficient: The student performs the task to industry standards with little or no supervision. This is the minimum performance rating for TAR skill completion.

                                    1 – Exposed/not proficient: Student has been introduced to the task, but cannot perform the task to industry standards.

 

 

          If the student performs the task at level 1, the instructor will circle the number in ink but will not initial or date the task. When a student performs the task to the instructor’s satisfaction (rating level 2 or 3), the instructor will circle the appropriate performance rating, and enter the date (month/day/year) in the “DATE COMPLETED” column and ensure the instructor and student initial the TAR to certify skill level attainment. Instructors are encouraged to annotate skill acquisition at level 3 – there is no requirement to enter a date for a level 3 unless level 3 was achieved at the same time as level 2.

 

4.      When a student completes the TAR or terminates the program before completing the TAR, the instructor must finalize the TAR by checking the appropriate box and entering the date (month/day/year) and the student completed the TAR or terminated the training program in the space provided at the top of page 1.

 

5.      “EMPLOYER SPECIFIC SKILLS,” is an optional section which can be used to make note of important job skills that student has acquired, but which are not specifically listed elsewhere on the TAR, or to denote supplemental skills a perspective employer may require of a student before he or she is offered employment. Such skills may also have been acquired during Work-Based Learning opportunities.

 

6.      For all students, center staff must record on the Job Corps Student Profile (Form ETA 6-40) the O*NET code(s) and the completer level(s) achieved. The original TAR must be filed in the student’s personnel file immediately upon TAR completion or upon separation for non-completers. Upon completion of all levels on the individual TAR or upon separation, which ever occurs first, the original TAR will be sent to student records for entry into the student’s personnel file and validation of credits in CIS.

 

7.   Certification Instructions – Instructors will complete the certification section of the TAR found on the last page, titled “CERTIFICATION RECORD.” This information is to be entered on the TAR and in CIS.
