competency objectives


Explanation:
This term is often used in various study programs in Denmark, e.g. senior high school, vocational schools, universities or business schools - implying particular kinds of learning outcomes. I consider it very important to maintain the strong emphasis on objectives or goals within the Danish context that appears to be slightly different than the typical North American usage of educational related competencies.
