Introduction
The National Vocational Education Qualification Framework (NVEQF) developed by the Ministry of Human Resource Development
(MHRD), Government of India provides a common reference for linking various qualifications to be used for setting common principles
and guidelines for a nationally recognized qualification system covering Schools, Vocational Education and Training Institutions, Technical
Education Institutions, and Universities/Colleges.

As per NVEQF qualifications are to be developed in series of levels of knowledge and skills, defined in terms of learning outcomes i.e., the
competencies (knowledge, skills and attitude) which the learners must possess regardless of whether they were acquired through formal,
non-formal or informal education and training system. Units of competency are the specification of knowledge and skill and the application
of that knowledge and skill to the standard of performance expected in the workplace.

Competency is defined in terms of what a person is required to perform, under what conditions it is done and how well it is to be done.
Generic competencies are considered essential for a person to participate effectively in the workforce, whereas technical competencies are
an individual's knowledge and expertise in the specific group task and its processes. An executive order F.No.1-4/2011-VE dated 3 Sept.,
2012 on the various aspects of NVEQF has been issued by the MHRD. For more details on the NVEQF, please visit the website of MHRD
at www: mhrd.gov.in.

A competency based curriculum describes what learners must “know” and “be able to do” by the end of a program or study. It identifies the
competencies and sub-competencies each learner is expected to master. It states clearly the criteria and conditions by which performance
will be assessed. It also defines the learning activities that will lead to the learner to mastery of the targeted learning outcome.

The competency based curriculum is broken down into parts known as Units. Each unit is further broken down into knowledge and skills
on the basis of which evidence is to be provided by the learner and the evaluation is to be done by the teacher or trainer.

About the Sector
The Beauty and Wellness sector in India is witnessing exponential growth due to consumerism, globalization and changing lifestyles. Rising disposable
income of the rapidly expanding Indian middle class, demand fuelled by increasing stress levels and willingness of people to ‘look and feel good’ are
further fueling the growth of the Beauty & Wellness industry. India is currently the 10th fastest growing market globally in Beauty & Wellness sector .
This industry is presumed to reach a remarkable INR 875,000 crores by the year 2014 The Indian Beauty and Wellness sector comprises of mainly two
segments: Products and Services. The Services segment alone contributes as much as 40% of total market. This lucrative market has drawn attention not
only of domestic players, VCs, and angel investors but also of established international players that are also now keen to tap into this market.

The rapid growth in beauty and wellness industry along with the entry of giant organized players both nationally and globally, has led to huge demand
for trained personnel. The skilled and trained personnel requirement in the next five years is an estimated 4.47 million. However, there is a huge deficit
in the availability of skilled and trained personnel. This talent deficit poses extreme threat to the growth and expansion of the whole beauty and wellness
industry

Critical Occupations:
Critical occupations have been identified from existing job roles in the industry based on maximum demand and minimum available skill set in the
workplace. Critical occupations, identified in this sector, embrace 75% to 85% of total employee strength where employers are facing huge challenge to
meet the demand of the skilled workforce:

Salon & Beauty Fitness & Slimming Alternate Therapy &
Rejuvenation Product consultation & sales
Center Centers Treatment

Classroom Activities:
The main activity in classroom will be an interactive lecture session, followed by discussions. Teachers should make effective use of a variety
of instructional aids, such as Videos, Power Point Presentations, Charts, Diagrams, Models, Exhibits, Handouts, etc. to transmit knowledge in
projective and interactive mode.

Practical Activities:
Activities that provide practical experience are termed as practical activities such as chart preparation, collation of objects relevant to the topics,
preparation of informative document, role play, games, etc; Props, tools and equipment are used for practical activities to provide hands-on
experiences for students in the chosen occupation. Specialized techniques such as handling of products and equipment, maintaining safe and
hygienic conditions, handling customer’s complaints and requirements, etc are to be imparted to the students by expert trainers. For practical
training in any organization/industry that reflects tasks to be performed and competencies to be imparted, should be as per a plan signed by
the student, teacher and employer.

On-the-Job Training:
On-the-job training (OJT) utilizes actual equipment and materials in a structured manner, following a training plan that reflects tasks to be
performed and competencies to be imparted under the supervision of an experienced trainer or supervisor. Training plan is prepared and
signed by the student, teacher, and supervisor at the organization/industry. In the first step of OJT the trainer will provide an overview of the
task to the student, explaining the constructional details and use of the tools, equipment, materials, etc. in performing the tasks. In the second
step trainer will tell, show, and demonstrate step by step the use of tools, materials and equipment for performing a task showing the
finished products at each appropriate step which will help the leaner understand what is required as outcome. Student will directly
participate in the next level while the trainer monitors the progress and provides the feedback. At the last level student practices with clearly
defined targets for performance standards.

Assessment Guide

Assessment is a process used for determining an individual's progress or level of mastery/competence in an occupational area. It may be
formative (continuous) and/or summative (final). It is a process of collecting evidence and making judgment about the extent to which a
person demonstrates the knowledge and skills set out in the standards or learning outcomes of a unit of competency. Assessment should be
done on the basis of information or evidence about the individual’s ability against clearly stated objectives or standards. A diversity of
assessment methods is required to achieve the multiple purposes and to satisfy the requirements of competency based assessment.
Appropriate evidence is to be collected from activities that can be clearly related to the Units of Competency. It should cover all the
elements and performance criteria/indicators in the competency standards. Student’s achievements should be assessed by using the
following methods of assessment.
The final assessment will be in line with the CBSE guidelines.

Introduction
The National Vocational Education Qualification Framework (NVEQF) developed by the Ministry of Human Resource Development
(MHRD), Government of India provides a common reference for linking various qualifications to be used for setting common principles
and guidelines for a nationally recognized qualification system covering Schools, Vocational Education and Training Institutions, Technical
Education Institutions, and Universities/Colleges.

As per NVEQF qualifications are to be developed in series of levels of knowledge and skills, defined in terms of learning outcomes i.e., the
competencies (knowledge, skills and attitude) which the learners must possess regardless of whether they were acquired through formal,
non-formal or informal education and training system. Units of competency are the specification of knowledge and skill and the application
of that knowledge and skill to the standard of performance expected in the workplace.

Competency is defined in terms of what a person is required to perform, under what conditions it is done and how well it is to be done.
Generic competencies are considered essential for a person to participate effectively in the workforce, whereas technical competencies are
an individual's knowledge and expertise in the specific group task and its processes. An executive order F.No.1-4/2011-VE dated 3 Sept.,
2012 on the various aspects of NVEQF has been issued by the MHRD. For more details on the NVEQF, please visit the website of MHRD
at www: mhrd.gov.in.

A competency based curriculum describes what learners must “know” and “be able to do” by the end of a program or study. It identifies the
competencies and sub-competencies each learner is expected to master. It states clearly the criteria and conditions by which performance
will be assessed. It also defines the learning activities that will lead to the learner to mastery of the targeted learning outcome.

The competency based curriculum is broken down into parts known as Units. Each unit is further broken down into knowledge and skills
on the basis of which evidence is to be provided by the learner and the evaluation is to be done by the teacher or trainer.

About the Sector
The Beauty and Wellness sector in India is witnessing exponential growth due to consumerism, globalization and changing lifestyles. Rising disposable
income of the rapidly expanding Indian middle class, demand fuelled by increasing stress levels and willingness of people to ‘look and feel good’ are
further fueling the growth of the Beauty & Wellness industry. India is currently the 10th fastest growing market globally in Beauty & Wellness sector .
