This book looks at the question 'How do knowledge and understanding relate to competence?'. The papers were first commissioned by the Training Agency as part of a symposium on 'The identification and assessment of underpinning knowledge and understanding in competence based vocational qualifications', held in Leicester in 1989. The symposium was designed to focus on the central question of how the 'knowledge and understanding' component of competence might best be accomodated within a model which was centred on observable performance.
