Competency-based approaches using information and communication technologies have been the main solution of the organization's expectations in all fields (public and private) to increase the products' quality and employees' capacity. Furthermore, the concept of competency can have several different definitions, which may make it difficult to model. As a result, without a good representation of the knowledge and competency and reusable definitions of competence, an e-Learning system will be unable to adapt to its users, to personalize learning activities. In this paper, we present a view of some important competency definitions and the main competency specifications, like the HR-XML specification (Human Resources XML), and the IMS Reusable Definition of Competency or Educational Objective (IMS RDCEO). Moreover, we suggest a competency model for training and education based on these specifications.

“…None of the adaptive systems support a learner seeking to achieve an intended learning outcome (Nitchot, Gilbert, & Wills, 2010). Finally, Sitthisak, Gilbert, Davis, and Gobbi (2007) highlighted the inconsistency of adaptive assessment systems in estimating a learner's knowledge level.…”

The article proposes a self-study system which suggests web links to learners. The suggestions depend upon the learner's chosen competences selected from a competence structure for a particular knowledge domain. Three experiments were conducted, where the first compared the perceived usefulness and value of the links generated by different learning paths selected to navigate the competence structure. The second experiment evaluated the acceptability of the self-study system, and the third experiment compared ratings of the links generated by two different search engines (Google, iSEEK). The results showed that the competence-based self-study system was accepted by learners, that learning paths which included more competence nodes were more useful than paths with fewer nodes, and that there was no significant difference between the ratings of the competence-based links generated by the two types of search engine.

Self-assessment is a crucial component of learning.Creating effective questions is time-consuming, however, because it may require considerable resources and the skill of critical thinking. Questions need careful construction to accurately represent the intended learning outcome and the subject matter involved. There are very few systems currently available which generate questions automatically, and these are confined to specific domains. This paper presents a system for automatically generating questions from a competency framework, based on question templates, criteria for effective questions, and the instructional content and ability matrix. This makes it possible to guide learners in developing questions for themselves, and to provide authoring templates which speed the creation of new questions for selfassessment.
