摘要:National Competency Standards (NCS) are defined as required knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to execute one's duties at work; these are systematized by business sectors and level of ability. To create a competence based society, the South Korean government has established NCS and have promoted the application of NCS in vocational education areas. In accordance with the government's effort, universities, government institutions, and companies are trying to apply NCS into their system. Particularly, universities have developed NCS-based curriculum and offer courses which are developed based on national competency standards. However, a standardized assessment tool for instructors has not been developed as of yet. With absence of an assessment instrument, instructors are struggling to assess students' NCS vocational competency. This study developed the performance assessment instrument to assess NCS communication skills, and tested the validity of developed instrument. Developed performance assessment instrument enables the objective and coherent assessment of students' communication skills. This study will contribute to the development of an assessment instrument for assessing other vocational basic skills.
