PSLO Assessment Report Summary

What we looked at:

The Construction Electricity Certificate Program assessment focused on PSLO 6.

What we found:

PSLO #6: Install residential wiring circuits according to given specification and plan
Task description: Given description of project and instructions, students will build electrical circuit according to given specification and plan. The practical was assessed based on calculating of electrical circuit, meeting the NEC standards, testing circuits using multi-meter and explaining the principle of the circuit.

The results of the written and practical exams showed those 9 out of 13 students or 69% got 70% or better in installing residential wiring.

What we are planning to work on:

• Students to have more practice on installing electrical fixtures

• On Job Training for the construction students to gain more skill in their field of study, and get familiar with the NEC requirements.

Recommendations for students:

Students must have the basic knowledge of electricity.
Students must have good skills in reading and math.
