Mastering Competency-Based Assessment

Competency-Based Assessment has received some pretty bad press in recent years. Too often it is seen as something only undertaken by trainers. The truth is, Competency-Based Assessment is actually something that we all do, every day.

While trainers and educators use this form of assessment to evaluate how and how well learners are learning, Competency-Based Assessment is used to assess and evaluate the performance of individuals, groups and organisations as a whole. It is just that there is no real agreement on the best way of doing this.

This book is all about how Competency-Based Assessment can be used by anybody interested in measuring the gap between the current level of performance and what is seen as essential for individual and business success.

Renowned Vocational Education and Training thought leader, Dr Phil Rutherford, author of the best-selling book, Competency-Based Assessment: A Guide to Implementation, reveals why competency-based assessment was created and how it can be used as a learning tool â€“ for individuals, groups and organisations.

In this book he will show you what Competency-Based Assessment really is, how it can be structured to fit any training or education system, and how it can save you time and effort while bringing fantastic results to people you assess using this process. You will also learn:
â€¢What is really meant by competence ...
â€¢How Competency-Based Assessment can be used to prove Kirkpatrickâ€™s Levels of Evaluation are more than just a theory â€¦
â€¢How anything (well, almost anything) can be used to demonstrate competence ...
â€¢The Rules of Evidence and how to use them ...
â€¢The most common ways in which the assessment can be carried out â€“ including:
oUnderstanding and evaluating evidence
oThe Rules of Evidence, and
oRecognition of Prior Learning
â€¢And finally, 20 reasons why your organisation should consider this approach to assessment.

Phil is a world leading authority on vocational education and training. He helped introduce the National Vocational Qualifications (NVQ) system in the UK, the Australian and New Zealand Qualifications Systems, and advised on the creation of numerous VET systems around the world. He has led projects that have saved companies millions of dollars in staff training costs and is the leading author and speaker on Competency-Based Assessment processes.

In short, he is a true expert on Competency-Based Assessment, and how it may be used to minimise costs, reduce effort and waste during assessment, and maximise return on investment in your training and learning efforts.
