Competency
..the ability to do something
successfully or efficiently –
Oxford English dictionary
…it signifies a teaching approach which
focuses on the knowledge, skills and
competences gained by a student as
result of learning.
Competence-based
education
programs are built
from the idea that
it is more
important to focus
on outcomes—what
a student knows
and can do—than
on inputs like how
the student learns
it, where the
student learns it, or
how long the
student takes to
learn it.
Competence-
based
curriculum is
directly linked to
the industrial
economy.

• The education system has a great role in
determining the industrial development of
any country. What is happening in school has
a direct link with what will happen in the
community. This means that, as schools
produce individuals with high level
knowledge, skills, and competences, so will
the industries obtained skilled workers who
can produce quality goods.
COMPETENCE BASED

CONTENT BASED
It is different from the
traditional content-based
curriculum which focused
on knowledge acquisition
and memorization.

demands schools to have
enough teaching and learning
facilities which will enable

colleges
Overcrowded classrooms
Poor infrastructure
Lack of knowledge in teachers
Lack of flexibility in teachers
to adopt to new paradigms
Rigidity of the education
