BUENO CHUCHUCA, Geovanny Fabián. Observations on the competency approach and its relationship with educational quality. Sophia [online]. 2022, n.32, pp.93-117. ISSN 1390-8626.  https://doi.org/10.17163/soph.n32.2022.02.

This work analyzes the relationship between competences and educational quality, in order to know the context in which they emerge, their characteristics and the meaning of this relationship; where from the bibliographic review positions are revealed that denote a tendency to the labor market, for this reason the question arises if another relationship between these is possible. The methodology used is the bibliographic review, the interpretation of texts with an analytical-critical approach. Among the main results is that the concept of competence is adaptable to any discipline, approach, tendency or motivations, its main characteristic being its instrumental sense, as such in the educational context it is necessary to interpret the intentions behind its practice. In addition, international organizations have a political and influential role in the different models that have come to be considered. As main conclusions, it is postulated that the focus on competencies and the achievement of quality are a natural response of the context for greater productivity in the bureaucratization of social institutions, with education being directed to these parameters; For this reason, it is proposed to adopt a quality model as a transformation of the subjects beyond quality as a purpose of accountability, this would lead to a change in the evaluative tendencies in the competence-quality relationship.
