FOREWORD
The National Skills Standards Authority (NSSA), formed in 2007 by the Ministry of Labour,
has been facilitating the development of National Occupational Competency Standards (NOCS)
for competency-based training, competency-based assessment and qualification of the
Myanmar workforce.
The NSSA formed 16 Competency Standard Development Committees comprising of
representatives from relevant line ministries and the private sector to, among others, develop
the NOCS which would be the basis of assessment and awarding of national certificates to the
competent candidate. Thus far, the 16 Competency Standard Development Committees have
developed 223 NOCS at four levels for each occupation, of which 135 were approved in principle
by the Cabinet.
In 2014, the NSSA with the assistance of GIZ and Swisscontact has started
implementation of the ‘Fast Track Skills Assessment and Certification Pilot Project’ with the aim
to certify existing skilled workers at NOCS Level 1. For the pilot project, Technical Working
Groups were formed by the NSSA to review the NOCS for 25 priority occupations. NSSA
continued to review and revise NOCS, Up to now, 83 NOCS are already updated with labour
market needs.
The Technical Working Group (TWG) is formed by Electrical Engineering Competency
Standard Development Committee to develop NOCS of Electrician (Control Panel Assembly
Work). In 2020, NOCS Version No. 1 of Electrician (Control Panel Assembly Work) Level 1 is
developed with financial and technical assistance of Japan International Cooperation Agency
(JICA).
The Electrician (Control Panel Assembly Work) Level 1 (Version No.1) contains (3)
Competency Units, comprising of (1) unit under Technical Competency, (1) unit under Industry
Competency and (1) unit under Basic Competency. This standard can be used for training and
assessment leading to certification by NSSA.
The Technical Working Group who reviewed the standard was composed of the following:
