In my opinion the degree is not necessarily imply competence, because being a degree not at all are employed. and both degree and not educated are same to be competence it depends the attitude ad behaviour of the person. We people have different talent and action that we can only learn from it and we can gain knowledge through what we heard and see. We are capable to do the work as long as we are willing to learn and to explore a new challenge in our lives. It is good to be competence through our sweat and effort that we work very hard to be able to be productive.
Not at all, a degree is a pointer that a person is employable.Competence is determined by the employee's knowledge of the industry and his/her ability to use these skills to achieve results on the job.
I totally disagree with the statement. A degree is only a pre-cursor to competancy but it is not the only factor to competancy. The competancy of an employee can only be judged by his/her work itself. A degree is only a hint as to the field of expertise the employee might have. It is synonymous to experience as experience alone cannot be considered the sufficient condition for excellence. Excellence/competancy in a field of work totally depends on the level of interest, will to learn & dedication to the work that the person has. Degree/equivalent knowledge can always be gained if the former criterias are present in the employee.
In my opinion degree is just certicate which make you enable to represent yourself in an authorized way. While Talent and Intelligence don't require to prove themself.
No, it does not imply COMPETENCE. It is an indicator. What does it indicate? Different things in different people.
Thanks for invitation,
No, "degree" is only an item from many others, i.e. in addition to, technical experience, technical and personal skills.
yes of course. we must respect the time and money spent to get this degree. competence too has stages and level and goes with the age (maturity) and years of experience. value and quality of competence are unique if you do comparability test and apply your company or personal standard. the degree of competence is situational and the quality of output coming from the tools the candidate applied at the given input (challenge/task). if you are a recruiter, look at this task and identify what expertise required and level of competence acceptable to your company or to your own standards (expert judgment) in case your company did not set the objectivity.
Thank you for your invite.
In my opinion, a degree serves an individual a qualification to be in the job which the company seeks as a requirement. the individual does various on the track records to fulful the competency aspect such as a year training in management to learn the skills for the job role.
Another way of looking at competency is being complacent with rules and regulation and safety standards in the area you are working. This willn indicate your skills in your role.
“Social skills now rank No. 1 among job skills in highest demand.” —Laurence Shatkin, Ph.D., author of 150 Best Jobs for Your Skills. Gaining Cultural Understanding. Whether you're planning on getting language training or a degree in the United States, you will find opportunities to develop intercultural competence....
The jobs of the globalized future will not only require English language ability, but also the ability to communicate effectively within the English-speaking cultures. Employers all over the world are seeking those who have the skills of intercultural competence.
Intercultural competence minimally includes a set of skills that demonstrate someone is capable of effective communication and relationship-building within another culture. Most students think that intercultural competence can only occur in a language classroom where the teacher engages students in controlled, safe intercultural experiences. However, what happens outside the classroom is just as important as what goes on inside. For example, when you experience a new culture and overcome your homesickness by engaging in the community of the host culture, you learn something valuable about yourself. This makes you better able to adapt to new situations, new people and new work environments.
More than ever before, employers are looking to hire people who can adapt easily, “think on their feet,” and meet new challenges wisely. In the future, being inter-culturally competent will be one of the most basic skills of any job. Being at the forefront of that trend will give you a competitive edge on job applications, especially in the fields of medicine, business, engineering, and technology.
A degree does not imply competence. It does qualify and certify an individual to being learned and educated. Taking on related courses to your field in education makes it possible for companies to see your practical side also know as competence and learning ability and being a professional.
When you do things like take on different roles in the college you are involved with, you then have the capacity to learn fast and resource well.
Learners work on one competency at a time, which is likely a small component of a larger learning goal. The student is evaluated on the individual competency, and only once they have mastered it do they move on to others. After that, higher or more complex competencies are learned to a degree of mastery and isolated exposures to task.
Degree courses are increasingly being designed to develop students' competences as well as their subject-specific knowledge. What competences do students perceive as being developed, and to what extent? Do work placements and academic studies have different patterns of competence development, and how well it is done.
The inter-culturally competent person is capable of building meaningful relationships in another culture. These relationships, whether with academic colleagues or business acquaintances, often lead to lifelong partnerships that are mutually beneficial.
