Understanding.png
Competendo’s main focus is to shape and strengthen key competencies of individuals and to support an applied learning outcome in their life as active citizens and changemakers. We promote a learned outcome wider than knowledge, including the practical skills of learners and their attitudes. We hope that these competencies will help people be better prepared to thrive in complex social situations.

 


Key Competences and Learning

Competence-centred learning processes cover a broad range of skills, knowledge, and attitudes that one needs for successful problem-solving techniques in modern society. They help the individual to develop their key competencies and have an active attitude towards the idea of life-long learning.

Experiential Learning

Experiential learning is a holistic process of individual development that brings relevance to the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of the participants. It combines the learning opportunities of everyday life and scholastic institutions with all other possible activities that are available in society.

 


Empowerment

Empowerment

Competendo-Empowerment.png
Empowerment is the learning and developmental process of raising social, spiritual, economic, and political capacities of individuals or communities. We promote it as a tool to help each individual to act self-responsibly and with a sense of purpose. We hope to equip individuals with skills, knowledge, and competencies that will promote empathy and a desire to share their influence and power as self-responsible individuals.


 


Group-related and Interpersonal Aspects

Group-related and Interpersonal Aspects

Understanding-groups.png
Following the idea of competence-based learning and empowerment, we need to reflect and improve upon the learning conditions in our classrooms, seminars, and workplaces. Since social life is shaped through group and intergroup collaboration, we need to transform our social groups into collectives which encourage peer-involvement-style learning in order to create a new understanding of the role of teachers or trainers as facilitators.
