Competence Based Education and Training (CBET) and the End of Human Learning

Challenging the optimism surrounding Competence Based Education and Training (CBET), this book critiques its impact on learning and employment. It traces CBET's roots in Taylorism and radical behaviorism, arguing that the competency movement undermines essential concepts of human learning. By examining its evolution into a global phenomenon, the author contends that competency education contradicts fundamental principles of process and causality, ultimately rendering traditional notions of learning obsolete.
