FOREWORD

The Pandit Sunderlal Sharma Central Institute of Vocational Education (PSSCIVE) a


constituent of the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) is
spearheading the efforts of developing learning outcome based vocational curriculum and
courseware aimed at integrating both vocational and general qualifications to open
pathways of career progression for students. It is a part of Centrally Sponsored Scheme of
Vocationalisation of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (CSSVSHSE) launched by
the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India in 2012. The PSS Central
Institute of Vocational Education (PSSCIVE) is developing curricula under the project
approved by the Project Approval Board (PAB) of Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan
(RMSA). The main purpose of the learning outcome based vocational curriculum is to bring
about the improvement in teaching-learning process and working competencies through
learning outcomes embedded in the vocational subject.

It is a matter of great pleasure to introduce this learning outcome based vocational


curriculum as part of the vocational training packages for the job role of Food and Beverage
Service Trainee. The curriculum has been developed for the higher secondary students of
vocational education and is aligned to the National Occupation Standards (NOSs) of a job
role identified and approved under the National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF).

The curriculum aims to provide children with employability and vocational skills to support
occupational mobility and lifelong learning. It will help them to acquire specific occupational
skills that meet employers’ immediate needs. The teaching process is to be performed
through the interactive sessions in classrooms, practical activities in laboratories and
workshops, projects, field visits, and professional experiences.

The curriculum has been developed and reviewed by a group of experts and their
contributions are greatly acknowledged. The utility of the curriculum will be adjudged by the
qualitative improvement that it brings about in teaching-learning. The feedback and
suggestions on the content by the teachers and other stakeholders will be of immense value
to us in bringing about further improvement in this document.

PREFACE

India today stands poised at a very exciting juncture in its saga. The potential for achieving
inclusive growth are immense and the possibilities are equally exciting. The world is looking at
us to deliver sustainable growth and progress. To meet the growing expectations, India will
largely depend upon its young workforce. The much-discussed demographic dividend will
bring sustaining benefits only if this young workforce is skilled and its potential is channelized in
the right direction.

In order to fulfil the growing aspirations of our youth and the demand of skilled human
resource, the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India
introduced the revised Centrally Sponsored Scheme of Vocationalisation of Secondary and
Higher Secondary Education that aims to provide for the diversification of educational
opportunities so as to enhance individual employability, reduce the mismatch between
demand and supply of skilled manpower and provide an alternative for those pursuing higher
education. For spearheading the scheme, the PSS Central Institute of Vocational Education
(PSSCIVE) was entrusted the responsibility to develop learning outcome based vocational
curriculum, student workbooks, teacher handbooks and e-learning materials for the job roles
in various sectors, with growth potential for employment.

The PSSCIVE firmly believes that the vocationalisation of education in the nation needs to be
established on a strong footing of philosophical, cultural and sociological traditions and it
should aptly address the needs and aspirations of the students besides meeting the skill
demands of the industry. The curriculum, therefore, aims at developing the desired
professional, managerial and communication skills to fulfil the needs of the society and the
world of work. In order to honour its commitment to the nation, the PSSSCIVE has initiated the
work on developing learning outcome based vocational curriculum with the involvement of
faculty members and leading experts in respective fields. It is being done through the
concerted efforts of leading academicians, professionals, policy makers, partner institutions,
Vocational Education and Training experts, industry representatives, and teachers. The expert
group through a series of consultations, working group meetings and use of reference
materials develops a National Curriculum. Currently, the Institute is working on developing
curricula and courseware for over 100 job roles in various sectors.

We extend our gratitude to all the contributors for selflessly sharing their precious knowledge,
acclaimed expertise, valuable time and positively responding to our request for development
of curriculum. We are grateful to MHRD and NCERT for the financial support and cooperation
in realising the objective of providing learning outcome based vocational curriculum and
courseware to the States and other stakeholders under the PAB (Project Approval Board)
approved project of Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiskha Abhiyan (RMSA) of MHRD.
Finally, for transforming the proposed curriculum design into a vibrant reality of
implementation, all the institutions involved in the delivery system shall have to come together
with a firm commitment and they should secure optimal community support. The success of
this curriculum depends upon its effective implementation and it is expected that the
managers of vocational education and training system, including subject teachers will make
efforts to create better facilities, develop linkages with the world of work and foster a
conducive environment as per the content of the curriculum document.

The PSSCIVE, Bhopal remains committed in bringing about reforms in the vocational
education and training system through the learner-centric curricula and courseware. We
hope that this document will prove useful in turning out more competent Indian workforce for
the 21st Century.

3. TEACHING/TRAINING ACTIVITIES

The teaching and training activities have to be conducted in classroom, laboratory/


workshops and field visits. Students should be taken to field visits for interaction with experts
and to expose them to the various tools, equipment, materials, procedures and operations in
the workplace. Special emphasis should be laid on the occupational safety, health and
hygiene during the training and field visits.

CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES

Classroom activities are an integral part of this course and interactive lecture sessions,
followed by discussions should be conducted by trained vocational teachers. Vocational
teachers should make effective use of a variety of instructional or teaching aids, such as
audio-video materials, colour slides, charts, diagrams, models, exhibits, hand-outs, online
teaching materials, etc. to transmit knowledge and impart training to the students.

PRACTICAL WORK IN LABORATORY/WORKSHOP

Practical work may include but not be limited to hands-on-training, simulated training, role
play, case based studies, exercises, etc. Equipment and supplies should be provided to
enhance hands-on learning experience of students. Only trained personnel should teach
specialized techniques. A training plan that reflects tools, equipment, materials, skills and
activities to be performed by the students should be submitted by the vocational teacher to
the Head of the Institution.

FIELD VISITS/ EDUCATIONAL TOUR

In field visits, children will go outside the classroom to obtain specific information from experts
or to make observations of the activities. A checklist of observations to be made by the
students during the field visits should be developed by the Vocational Teachers for systematic

CURRICULUM: TRAVEL, TOURISM & HOSPITALITY – FOOD & BEVERAGE SERVICE TRAINEE 4 | Page
© PSS CENTRAL INSTITUTE OF VOCATIONAL EDUCATION, BHOPAL

collection of information by the students on the various aspects. Principals and Teachers
should identify the different opportunities for field visits within a short distance from the school
and make necessary arrangements for the visits. At least three field visits should be
conducted in a year.

4. ASSESSMENT AND CERTIFICATION

Upon successful completion of the course by the candidate, the Central/ State
Examination Board for Secondary Education and the respective Sector Skill Council will certify
the competencies.

The National Skills Qualifications Framework (NSQF) is based on outcomes referenced to the
National Occupation Standards (NOSs), rather than inputs. The NSQF level descriptors, which
are the learning outcomes for each level, include the process, professional knowledge,
professional skills, core skills and responsibility. The assessment is to be undertaken to verify
that individuals have the knowledge and skills needed to perform a particular job and that
the learning programme undertaken has delivered education at a given standard. It should
be closely linked to certification so that the individual and the employer could come to know
the competencies acquired through the vocational subject or course. The assessment should
be reliable, valid, flexible, convenient, cost effective and above all it should be fair and
transparent. Standardized assessment tools should be used for assessment of knowledge of
students. Necessary arrangements should be made for using technology in assessment of
students.

KNOWLEDGE ASSESSMENT (THEORY)

Knowledge Assessment should include two components: one comprising of internal


assessment and second an external examination, including theory examination to be
conducted by the Board. The assessment tools shall contain components for testing the
knowledge and application of knowledge. The knowledge test can be objective paper
based test or short structured questions based on the content of the curriculum.

WRITTEN TEST

It allows candidates to demonstrate that they have the knowledge and understanding of a
given topic. Theory question paper for the vocational subject should be prepared by the
subject experts comprising group of experts of academicians, experts from existing
vocational subject experts/teachers, and subject experts from university/colleges or industry.
The respective Sector Skill Council should be consulted by the Central/State Board for
preparing the panel of experts for question paper setting and conducting the examinations.

SKILL ASSESSMENT (PRACTICAL)

Assessment of skills by the students should be done by the assessors/examiners on the basis of
practical demonstration of skills by the candidate, using a competency checklist. The
competency checklist should be developed as per the National Occupation Standards
(NOSs) given in the Qualification Pack for the Job Role to bring about necessary consistency
in the quality of assessment across different sectors and Institutions. The student has to
demonstrate competency against the performance criteria defined in the National

CURRICULUM: TRAVEL, TOURISM & HOSPITALITY – FOOD & BEVERAGE SERVICE TRAINEE 6 | Page
© PSS CENTRAL INSTITUTE OF VOCATIONAL EDUCATION, BHOPAL

Occupation Standards and the assessment will indicate that they are 'competent', or are 'not
yet competent'. The assessors assessing the skills of the students should possess a current
experience in the industry and should have undergone an effective training in assessment
principles and practices. The Sector Skill Councils should ensure that the assessors are
provided with the training on the assessment of competencies.

Practical examination allows candidates to demonstrate that they have the knowledge and
understanding of performing a task. This will include hands-on practical exam and viva voce.
For practical, there should be a team of two evaluators – the subject teacher and the expert
from the relevant industry certified by the Board or concerned Sector Skill Council. The same
team of examiners will conduct the viva voce.

Project Work (individual or group project) is a great way to assess the practical skills on a
certain time period or timeline. Project work should be given on the basis of the capability of
the individual to perform the tasks or activities involved in the project. Projects should be
discussed in the class and the teacher should periodically monitor the progress of the project
and provide feedback for improvement and innovation. Field visits should be organised as
part of the project work. Field visits can be followed by a small-group work/project
work. When the class returns from the field visit, each group might be asked to use the
information that they have gathered to prepare presentations or reports of their observations.
Project work should be assessed on the basis of practical file or student portfolio.

Student Portfolio is a compilation of documents that supports the candidate’s claim of


competence. Documents may include reports, articles, photos of products prepared by
students in relation to the unit of competency.

Viva voce allows candidates to demonstrate communication skills and content knowledge.
Audio or video recording can be done at the time of viva voce. The number of external
examiners would be decided as per the existing norms of the Board and these norms should
be suitably adopted/adapted as per the specific requirements of the vocational subject.
Viva voce should also be conducted to obtain feedback on the student’s experiences and
learning during the project work/field visits.

CONTINUOUS AND COMPREHENSIVE EVALUATION

Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) refers to a system of school-based


evaluation of students that covers all aspects of student’s development. In this scheme, the
term `continuous' is meant to emphasize that evaluation of identified aspects of students
`growth and development' is a continuous process rather than an event, built into the total
teaching-learning process and spread over the entire span of academic session. The second
term `comprehensive' means that the scheme attempts to cover both the scholastic and the
co-scholastic aspects of students' growth and development. For details, the CCE manual of
Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) or the guidelines issued by the State Boards on
the procedure for CCE should be followed by the Institutions.

8. VOCATIONAL TEACHER’S/TRAINER’S
QUALIFICATION AND GUIDELINES

Qualification and other requirements for appointment of vocational teachers/trainers on


contractual basis should be decided by the State/UT. The suggestive qualifications and
minimum competencies for the vocational teacher should be as follows:

S.No. Qualification Minimum Age Limit


Competencies
1. Diploma/Degree in Hotel  Effective Above 28 years (as on
Management from a recognized communication Jan. 01 (year))
Institute /University, with at least 5 skills (oral and
years’ work/teaching experience in written) Age relaxation to be
Food and Beverage service  Basic computing provided as per Govt.
including one year as supervisory skills Rules
capacity in a classified Hotel or
Facility Management Company.

Vocational Teachers/Trainers form the backbone of Vocational Education being imparted as


an integral part of Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan (RMSA). They are directly involved
in teaching of vocational subjects and also serve as a link between the industry and the
schools for arranging industry visits, On-the-Job Training (OJT) and placement.

These guidelines have been prepared with an aim to help and guide the States in engaging
quality Vocational Teachers/Trainers in the schools. Various parameters that need to be
looked into while engaging the Vocational Teachers/Trainers are mode and procedure of
selection of Vocational Teachers/Trainers, Educational Qualifications, Industry Experience,
and Certification/Accreditation.
The State may engage Vocational Teachers/Trainers in schools approved under the
component of Vocationalisation of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education under RMSA
in the following ways:

(i) directly as per the prescribed qualifications and industry experience suggested by the
PSS Central Institute of Vocational Education(PSSCIVE), NCERT or the respective Sector
Skill Council(SSC)

OR

CURRICULUM: TRAVEL, TOURISM & HOSPITALITY – FOOD & BEVERAGE SERVICE TRAINEE 35 | Page
© PSS CENTRAL INSTITUTE OF VOCATIONAL EDUCATION, BHOPAL

(ii) Through accredited Vocational Training Providers accredited under the National
Quality Assurance Framework (NQAF*) approved by the National Skill Qualification
Committee on 21.07.2016. If the State is engaging Vocational Teachers/Trainers through
the Vocational Training Provider (VTP), it should ensure that VTP should have been
accredited at NQAF Level 2 or higher.
* The National Quality Assurance Framework (NQAF) provides the benchmarks or
quality criteria which the different organisations involved in education and
training must meet in order to be accredited by competent bodies to provide
government-funded education and training/skills activities. This is applicable to
all organizations offering NSQF-compliant qualifications.

The educational qualifications required for being a Vocational Teacher/Trainer for a


particular job role are clearly mentioned in the curriculum for the particular NSQF compliant
job role. The State should ensure that teachers / trainers deployed in the schools have
relevant technical competencies for the NSQF qualification being delivered. The Vocational
Teachers/Trainers preferably should be certified by the concerned Sector Skill Council for the
particular Qualification Pack/Job role which he will be teaching. Copies of relevant
certificates and/or record of experience of the teacher/trainer in the industry should be kept
as record.

To ensure the quality of the Vocational Teachers/Trainers, the State should ensure that a
standardized procedure for selection of Vocational Teachers/Trainers is followed. The
selection procedure should consist of the following:

(i) Written test for the technical/domain specific knowledge related to the sector;
(ii) Interview for assessing the knowledge, interests and aptitude of trainer through a panel
of experts from the field and state representatives; and
(iii) Practical test/mock test in classroom/workshop/laboratory.

In case of appointment through VTPs, the selection may be done based on the above
procedure by a committee having representatives of both the State Government and the
VTP.

The State should ensure that the Vocational Teachers/ Trainers who are recruited should
undergo induction training of 20 days for understanding the scheme, NSQF framework and
Vocational Pedagogy before being deployed in the schools.

The State should ensure that the existing trainers undergo in-service training of 5 days every
year to make them aware of the relevant and new techniques/approaches in their sector
and understand the latest trends and policy reforms in vocational education.

The Head Master/Principal of the school where the scheme is being implemented should
facilitate and ensure that the Vocational Teachers/Trainers:

(i) Prepare session plans and deliver sessions which have a clear and relevant purpose
and which engage the students;
(ii) Deliver education and training activities to students, based on the curriculum to
achieve the learning outcomes;

CURRICULUM: TRAVEL, TOURISM & HOSPITALITY – FOOD & BEVERAGE SERVICE TRAINEE 36 | Page

(iii) Make effective use of learning aids and ICT tools during the classroom sessions;
(iv) Engage students in learning activities, which include a mix of different methodologies,
such as project based work, team work, practical and simulation based learning
experiences;
(v) Work with the institution’s management to organise skill demonstrations, site visits, on-
job trainings, and presentations for students in cooperation with industry, enterprises
and other workplaces;
(vi) Identify the weaknesses of students and assist them in up-gradation of competency;
(vii) Cater to different learning styles and level of ability of students;
(viii) Assess the learning needs and abilities, when working with students with different
abilities
(ix) Identify any additional support the student may need and help to make special
arrangements for that support;
(x) Provide placement assistance

Assessment and evaluation of Vocational Teachers/Trainers is very critical for making them
aware of their performance and for suggesting corrective actions. The States/UTs should
ensure that the performance of the Vocational Teachers/Trainers is appraised annually.
Performance based appraisal in relation to certain pre-established criteria and objectives
should be done periodically to ensure the quality of the Vocational Teachers/Trainers.
Following parameters may be considered during the appraisal process:

1. Participation in guidance and counselling activities conducted at Institutional, District


and State level;
2. Adoption of innovative teaching and training methods;
3. Improvement in result of vocational students of Class X or Class XII;
4. Continuous up-gradation of knowledge and skills related to the vocational pedagogy,
communication skills and vocational subject;
5. Membership of professional society at District, State, Regional, National and International
level;
6. Development of teaching-learning materials in the subject area;
7. Efforts made in developing linkages with the Industry/Establishments;
8. Efforts made towards involving the local community in Vocational Education
9. Publication of papers in National and International Journals;
