Competence based training
Traditional system:
• Set list of tasks• Candidate completes a training book• Officer signs them off• Candidate deemed competent
But is that a true measure of competence?Trust? Reliability? Qualifications of the officer?
Leading the way; making a difference
Experience based competence
Time in rank/Co is a measure of experienceExperience is a proxy for competenceTherefore, greater the experience, greater the competence
But.... sometimes experience becomes the only measure
Leading the way; making a difference
A middle way
Combination of tasksTasks must reflect the workThe trainer must be trainedSystem auditableMust also combine with an experience element
Leading the way; making a difference
Way forward
Candidate combines Knowledge and SkillsKnowledge and skills gained through a variety of training methods and experienceCandidate assessed through performance standardsDeemed competent for the role
