Abstract
Competence‐based education has been the topic of considerable criticism recently. The purpose of this article is to argue that much of it is more justifiable as a critique of the particular format in which it is currently presented than of its underlying principles. A detailed critical analysis of the MCI materials in Management Education is presented, in order to show how many of the problems raised by these documents have been resolved in an alternative format for competence‐based education devised by the ASSET Programme, a competence‐based degree level qualification is social work, recently developed by the author and a colleague from Essex Social Services Department.
