What is competence-based assessment?

Competence-based assessment is the bridge between the education and employment market. It gives a language to learning and development and one that is understood both by educational institutions and the employment systems. At the same time, it does not rely on traditional authority, which comes with external assessment, tests and grading. It allows separation from official programmes and institutions and it is opening space for self-assessment and peer assessment. That said, it is an assessment of ‘real-life’ performance, rather than academic achievements. This means that it allows space for competences that are gained on-the-job (through your trainer’s practice) and/or through non-formal training opportunities and/or through informal, life situations. Competence-based assessment is context based, or at least it should be, allowing for contextualisation of the competences. In our case, placing it into the context of international youth work training.
