competency-based assessment

Competency-Based Assessment is a method of evaluating a person's abilities based on specific skills and knowledge required for a task or job, rather than relying solely on traditional testing or time spent in training. In the context of General Knowledge, it focuses on whether individuals can apply what they know to real-world situations. This approach encourages mastery of concepts, ensuring that learners can demonstrate their understanding and practical skills effectively, rather than merely recalling information. It emphasizes the individual's competence in relevant areas, enhancing their confidence and readiness for future challenges.
