Training for New Times: Changing Relations of Competence, Learning and Innovation.
Mulcahy, Dianne
Studies in Continuing Education, v21 n2 p217-38 Nov 1999
Data from eight case studies demonstrate that competency-based training limits possibilities for creation of certain kinds of competence by emphasizing outcomes over processes and innovation. For example, national industry standards suggest that they are the only standards by which work can be done, denying other sources of standards. (Contains 33 references.) (SK)
