“…The work of Eraut (1994) on competence and professional expertise, and Dubois (1993Dubois ( , 1998 on competence and performance development, show how competence development and performance improvement are intertwined. Using the competence concept requires that meaningful clusters of knowledge, skills and attitudes for job performance have to be found, and that task-lists alone are insufficient for the development of training programmes.…”

This qualitative study explores the meanings and possible merits of introducing competence profiles for enhancing professional development in the environmental education sector in the Netherlands. It presents the three most important environmental education jobs and their underlying competencies alongside their core professional challenges, as identified by environmental educators and experts in the Netherlands. The jobs are: education practitioner, programme leader, and organisational manager. The core professional challenges for the education practitioner entail: developing demand-driven instructional programmes and spontaneous, ad-hoc programmes, and addressing task and goal orientations. For the programme leader, they are acquisition of new projects, quality assurance, and project management; and for the organisational manager, they are human resource management, financial management, representing the organisation and showing its performance. The results of the study should inform educational institutions how to develop relevant programmes for future environmental educators, and for the professional development of environmental educators in environmental education organisations.

“…Competency is a malleable attribute that can be enhanced with appropriate measures such as training. [13] The effectiveness of the competency-based training model on knowledge, skills, and attitude has also been demonstrated in many different disciplines. [20,21] Competency in health information acquisition among children and young people can also be enhanced by applying the training model to improve their attitudes, information and acquisition seeking skills.…”

“…[13] These characteristics include content knowledge, specific skills, mindsets, thought pattern, and the like. [13] In other words, competency can be viewed as the "knowhow", not only in the sense of skills, but also in the individual's mentality. Applying this concept to health information acquisition, the competency of health information acquisition can be defined as the "knowhow", in the full sense, of knowing how to, as well as having the skills to, acquire specific health information.…”

Objective: To investigate the association between competency of health information acquisition, both online and offline, and the intention for active health behaviour in children. Methods:This study was a population-based cross-sectional health survey utilising a two-stage random cluster sampling design conducted in a major city. Competency of health information acquisition was assessed by a rating scale designed specifically for this study. The intention for active health behaviour was measured by a vignettebased question. Data were analysed using multiple logistic regression modelling techniques with adjustment to the cluster sampling effect and potential confounding factors. Results:After adjusting for potential confounding factors and the cluster sampling effect, intention for active health behaviour was significantly associated with competency of health information acquisition both online (OR=1.06, 95%C.I.=1.01-1.12) and offline (OR=1.08, 95%C.I.=1.02-1.18). Conclusions:Results suggested a positive relationship between competency of health information acquisition, both online and offline, and the intention for active health behaviour which have important public health implications on child health behaviour.

“…Menurut Dubois (1996), alternatifnya adalah mengembangkan model pelatihan berbasis kinerja (performance based training model), sekaligus sebagai pengembangan kompetensi pedagogik dan andragogik. Hal ini perlu diprogramkan karena pengembangan model pelatihan berbasis kinerja untuk peningkatan kompetensi tutor paket C di Pusat Kegiatan Belajar Masyarakat (PKBM) belum dilakukan penelitian secara mendalam.…”

A Performance-Based Training Model to Improve Equivalence Education Tutors' Competence. This study aimed to develop a training model to improve equivalence education tutors' competence, employing a performancebased training model, focusing on tutors' instructional competence. The training model was developed based on the fact that the current training process was too conventional and emphasized the cognitive aspect only. The performance-based training model was developed through research and development. The result showed that the performance-based training model was effective to improve the equivalence education tutors' pedagogic and andragogic competence in the Center for Community Learning Activities.
