Abstract	An initial listing of the tasks performed by electric power industry instructors was prepared by organizing and convening a DACUM (Developing a Curriculum) job analysis committee of 11 persons who were considered to be expert instructors in the field. The committee members, relying on their own knowledge and experience, and with the guidance of a DACUM facilitator, identified the duties and tasks that were considered important to them. They also reviewed existing instructor task lists. The tasks identified by the DACUM committee formed the basis for developing a verification instrument, which was submitted by mail to 5 to 10 expert instructors in 13 utilities. The verification respondents rated each statement on: (1) the importance of the task; (2) task learning difficulty; and (3) frequency with which the task was likely to be performed, using a six-point Likert scale. A total of 120 instructors responded to the task inventory by the cutoff date. The results of the survey are summarized in this report in terms of mean scores or percentages for each question about each task. The separately published "competency profile," which duplicates the duties/tasks contained in the first 10 pages of the "summary," lists the following 12 duties of instructors, with tasks identified for each duty: develop and maintain technical proficiency; develop and maintain instructional proficiency; assess training needs; develop/revise instructional material; prepare for instruction; coordinate and schedule training; operate and maintain instructional equpipment; deliver instruction; supervise trainees; and evaluate trainees. Members of the electric utility industry DACUM committee are also identified. (Author/KC)
