Module 2: Investigate the problem |
· Define problems according to the verified information · Explain the rationale for consulting with stakeholders and role-players to ensure that they contribute to the various stages of the problem-solving process · Explore techniques in the formulation of the problem definition and explain it according to theory and practice · Select a technique in line with the context of the problem |
· Investigate a problem to ascertain the various components · Obtain further information, if required, and critically examine all information for its relevance to the problem |
Module 3: Generate problem solutions |
Module 4: Implement solution(s) |
Module 5: Evaluate the effectiveness of the solution |
· Generate possible solutions by using a range of problem-solving techniques · Identify criteria and use weighting to enable the ranking of proposed solutions · Evaluate possible solutions against the established criteria in order to determine suitability |
· Select the optimum solution(s) in accordance with given criteria · Consult with stakeholders prior to implementation, so as to obtain commitment · Implement the selected solution (s), according to organisational constraints |
· Identify criteria for the measurement of the effectiveness of the solution according to the problem definition · Evaluate the effectiveness of the solution against the criteria · Identify and apply corrective action, where possible |
During the workshop the learner will complete a number of class activities that will form part of his/her formative assessment. In this the learner has the opportunity to practice and explore new skills in a safe environment. The learner should take the opportunity to gather as much information as he/she can to use during his/her workplace learning and self-study.
