Title: A guide to development of competency standards for professions
Abstract: This guide relates primarily to the development of national competency standards for individual professions. It is intended to be a more ‘hands-on’ document than the research series papers no. 1, ‘Establishing competency-based standards for the professions’ - indexed at TD/TNC 87.1474) and no. 2, ‘Competency-based assessment in the professions’ - indexed at TD/TNC 87.1472), although those remain relevant in their coverage of the basis of development of competency standards and thus complement the Guide.The guide includes more comprehensive examples of units and elements of competency, performance criteria and range indicators from standards developed in Australia. It gives practical feedback on experience with the development and application of competency standards in the Australian context. Discussion of further issues emanating from work on the development of standards by professions during 1990 and 1991 is included.
