Providers should conduct diagnostic and formative assessment. Formative, continuous and diagnostic assessments should also take place in the work place. The learner should be able to assess him or herself and determine readiness for a summative assessment against this Qualification.

    Learning, teaching and assessment are inextricably linked. Whenever possible, the assessment of knowledge, skills, attitudes and values shown in the unit standards should be integrated.

    Assessment of Communication and Mathematical Literacy should be conducted in conjunction with other aspects.

    A variety of methods must be used in assessment and tools and activities must be appropriate to the context in which the learner is working. Where it is not possible to assess the learner in the workplace or on-the-job, simulations, case studies, role-plays and other similar techniques should be used to provide a context appropriate to the assessment.

    The term `Integrated Assessment` implies that theoretical and practical components should be assessed together. Groups of standards may also be assessed together.

    Assessment should ensure that all specific outcomes, embedded knowledge and critical cross-field outcomes are evaluated. The assessment of the critical cross-field outcomes should be integrated with the assessment of specific outcomes and embedded knowledge.

    The final summative assessment for the qualification should be undertaken under the direction of the relevant Education and Training Quality Assurance (ETQA) body. 

  • INTERNATIONAL COMPARABILITY 
    International qualifications were examined to ensure that the qualification model and associated unit standards proposed are comparable in terms of qualification levels, scope and competencies covered. However, the core and elective components have been developed and/or revised taking into account South Africa's unique context, but also looking at international best practice.

    In the current South African context of bucket eradication challenges and municipalities mandated not only with the delivery of basic services but also with job-creation to their communities, the integration of water, health and sanitation provides an excellence model in integrating training and capacity building around the development initiatives of our nation, however the qualification mix of combining the promotion of community water, health and sanitation in one qualification presented challenges with benchmarking internationally.

    At an NQF Level 2, the worldwide historical model is to include water, sanitation and health education as extra-curricular secondary school or college programmes that are intended to mould learner behaviour in the applicable community. As a result, no wholly comparable qualification was found to be comparable with this qualification at this level. Part comparability was therefore researched and as such, courses mentioned in this report are comparative to exit level outcomes or relevant unit standards.

    Qualifications and skills programmes from the following countries were examined:
  • Kenya (NETWAS).
  • Uganda (NETWAS).
  • Zimbabwe (ISWD).
  • Centro de Formação Profissional de Águas e Saneamento (CFPAS) - Mozambique.

    International Water and Sanitation Center (IRC) - Netherlands:

    Since the formation of the IRC International Water and Sanitation Centre (IRC), Netherlands has become a hub of best practice in water and sanitation research, capacity building and training activities. Since its foundation in 1968, the IRC has facilitated the sharing, promotion and use of knowledge so that governments, professionals and organisations particularly in developing countries can make better use of training initiatives to obtain water and sanitation services they will use and maintain.

    The overall objective of IRC training activities is to provide through training of trainer courses to Water Services Sector (WSS) sector staff with the opportunity to update and supplement their knowledge on sector issues, and to improve their skills to plan, implement and manage projects. The training methodology is based on the conviction that the sharing of knowledge and experience is a valuable learning tool and essential in adult learning. IRC has a number of educational programs that it runs with partners such as ITN Africa in this context. To mention a few best practice models in school education about the promotion of community water, health and sanitation can be listed as the joint School Sanitation and Hygiene Education (SSHE) programmes which it initiated and launched in 1999 with UNICEF. The SSHE programme is the former Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) programme.

    The Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC) - Switzerland:

    The Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC) which is based in Switzerland, has a special interest in sanitation and hygiene and emphasizes the need to view Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) as an inseparable trinity for development. Though this council is not actively involved in classroom or direct training provision of formalized qualifications, its interest as stated above and its links to the United Nations makes it a key influence to training qualifications of this nature. This qualification is aligned with the programmes of the WSSCC in addressing water, sanitation and health promotion challenges as experienced worldwide.

    Water, Engineering & Development Centre (WEDC) - Loughborough University (UK):

    WEDC is one of the world's leading education and research institutes for improving access to infrastructure and services for the poor in low- and middle-income countries.

    Short Course: Water, Environment and Sanitation in Emergencies:

    Overview:

    Some of the most common needs of affected communities in any disaster - whether in a natural or conflict environment - is access to safe drinking water, adequate sanitation and hygiene. The associated risks to health in an emergency are due to lack of safe drinking water and disease transmission caused by poor sanitation and hygiene practices. Appropriate interventions improving water, sanitation and hygiene practice have a marked improvement on reducing disease transmission, alleviating the suffering of the community and saving lives.

    Aims & Objectives:

    The purpose of the training is to introduce participants to concepts of public health engineering/environmental health in emergencies and to familiarise them with standard equipment applied in the field.

    By the end of the course, participants should be able to understand:
  • The links between water, sanitation and health.
  • The nature of, and the threats posed by, environmental diseases.
  • The importance and main elements of hygiene-promotion.
  • The complexity in delivering safe water and sanitation in an emergency.
  • The standard equipment used in the field for emergency WatSan response.
  • The different response mechanism to Wat San in emergencies of major humanitarian agencies such as the IFRC, Oxfam, MSF and UN.

    Course Outline:
  • Health risks in emergencies.
  • Rapid assessments, reporting and monitoring.
  • Disease surveillance.
  • Coordination and partnerships.
  • Hygiene promotion.
  • Water quality testing and monitoring.
  • Environmental sanitation (solid waste management, site clean up).
  • Excreta disposal and latrines.
  • Site selection.
  • Water source identification.
  • Water pumping.
  • Water distribution systems.
  • Water trucking operations.
  • Transition issues (from emergency to rehabilitation).
  • Decommissioning and storage of equipment.
  • Streams of Knowledge (SOK).
  • Global coalition of resource centres in the water and sanitation sector. Organisations that work on water and sanitation issues and wish to broaden their approach will be supported to become resource centres. (Regional) Networks are being developed to help resource centres to validate the quality of their work, improve the relevance of their output and create conditions to exchange good practice.

    Conclusion:

    Whilst there exist a considerable amount of training programmes and short courses that are on the main comparable to this qualification, no qualification and unit standards that are directly comparable to this qualification and the component unit standards have been identified.

    This qualification therefore was developed bearing in mind international trends in Sanitation Facilitation and best practice was incorporated.

    The core and elective components have however been developed taking into account South Africa's context. The fundamental components, reflecting foundational learning and generic skills and knowledge have been derived from registered, local adult education unit standards.
