Evaluation of the competence: assessment and assessors

Theassessmentshouldaimatmeasuringthecompetencebyevaluatingthreemajorfac-torsassociatedtothelearningobjectives: Knowledge; Skills; Attitude.
Generally,knowledgeisevaluatedbyexamination.Thepurposeofthisdocumentisnotto describe the examination process: this material mainly addresses the evaluation of“skills” and “attitude” after training containing practical elements. Nevertheless, thetraineeneedstodemonstratesufficientknowledgetoperformtherequiredtasks.“Attitude”isindivisiblefromthe“skill”asthisgreatlycontributestothesafeperfor-manceofthetasks.Theevaluationofthecompetenceshouldbebasedonthelearningobjectivesofthetraining,inparticular: the(observable)desiredperformance.Thiscoverswhatthetraineeisexpectedtobe
