Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Practical sessions allow learners to apply theoretical knowledge to realistic workplace scenarios. Learners will draft parts of an Employment Equity Plan, complete reporting forms, and participate in role-play consultations to build hands-on compliance skills.

Practical Activities

• Workforce Profile Analysis — Learners analyse a sample workforce dataset to identify underrepresentation and barriers to equity. (4h)
• Drafting an Employment Equity Plan — Using a template, learners develop an Employment Equity Plan with objectives, timelines, and responsibilities. (4h)
• Role-Play Consultation Meeting — Learners simulate a consultation session between employer representatives and employee forum members to discuss the EE plan. (4h)
• Completing Employment Equity Reports — Learners fill in EEA2 and EEA4 forms using a case study workforce data. (4h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
