Take a hands-on approach. If this competency is for a machinery operator's Ticket, have the learner demonstrate his/her abilities. During the operation of the machinery, have the learner demonstrate a series of machine functions to determine how well he/she performs and identify the training gaps as they arise. Take this approach very slowly and step by step - you don't want anybody to get hurt. Once this is done, you can then design a task specific training program based on the training or ability gaps demonstrated by the learner. Once the gaps have been identified, and the training program developed, then running the learner through the training is the next step. Ensure that by the end of the training that the 'learner' can operate the equipment safely and effectively through a series of functions. Only then would you be able to ascertain whether or not the person is competent. I hope this has been of use to you.<br><b>References : </b><br> The simplest way to determine Learner needs for competency is to see how much the learner knows already. Take a hands-on approach.
