Good article defining and then describing arguments both for and against competency based learning management (CBLM). The idea of CBLM is that a given task or occupation can be broken down to a set of constituent skills. These skills, or competencies, can form the basis of personalized training. Sounds like a good idea. Though I have concerns about employer-driven training programs. But here, I think, is the knock-down argument: "A CBLM system, in a company competing in rapidly-changing dynamic markets, has a half-life of mere months."
