Objective:

• Compliance Check: The main aim during this phase is to review all the training materials submitted in the previous phase (02-01-2025 to 02-07-2025) to ensure they meet the QCTO standards.
• Educational Best Practices: In addition to compliance with QCTO standards, materials will also be checked for alignment with educational best practices, such as clarity, accessibility, and effectiveness in delivering content.

Review Criteria:

• QCTO Standards: The materials will be assessed for compliance with the specific guidelines and standards set by the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations, which include industry relevance, quality assurance, and outcomes-based training.
• Educational Best Practices: This includes the structure of the materials, learner engagement strategies, learning outcomes, assessment methods, and overall instructional quality.
• Consistency and Alignment: Ensuring that the materials are consistent across the curriculum and aligned with the intended learning objectives and qualifications.

Evaluation Process:

• Documentation Review: A detailed evaluation of the training manuals, assessment tools, course outlines, and other relevant documents.
• Expert Review: Subject matter experts (SMEs) or QCTO-appointed reviewers will assess whether the submitted materials meet the specific educational and compliance criteria.

Outcome of Compliance Review:

• Approval: If materials pass the review, they will be officially approved for use in training programs.
• Requests for Revision: If any materials do not meet the required standards, feedback will be provided for revision and resubmission.

Post-Review Actions:

• After this review phase, materials that have passed will be ready for implementation, while those needing revisions will enter a correction and resubmission process.
