    INTERNATIONAL COMPARABILITY 
    The uniqueness of the South African context is characterized by mostly rural and in most cases third world conditions where very specific skills are required to implement sanitation projects in areas with no running water.

    To address the requirements of a typical sanitation project in a rural community, the role of a monitor within the social context of the qualification, must be complemented with the unique trade of a Sanitation Builder, responsible on a large scale to roll out the massive backlogs of VIP/UD toilets in very rural and remote areas.

    As a result the qualification mix of combining social and technical skills as it applies to community water, health and sanitation into one qualification, presents challenges with benchmarking within the continent as well as internationally. No wholly comparative qualifications therefor were found to be comparative with a 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 and benchmarked:
  • Kenya (NETWAS).
  • Uganda (NETWAS).
  • Zimbabwe (ISWD).
  • Centro de Formação Profissional de Águas e Saneamento (CFPAS) - Mozambique.
  • UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education - Netherlands.

    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 thorough 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 class-room 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.

    Conclusion:

    Whilst there is a considerable amount of training programmes and short courses that are partly comparative to this qualification, no formal qualification and unit standards that are directly comparable to this qualification and the component unit standards have been identified. The international comparative search conducted has revealed that only short courses and no full qualifications exist in the international arena.

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