Abstract
Recently, there has been an increase in the adoption of competency-based approaches (CBA) in higher education and, for some practitioners, this involves modifying existing provision. This case study describes the development, delivery, and evaluation of a transnational training program that was developed for Chinese university tutors who planned to implement CBA into their teaching. The 25-hr training program was designed to be experiential in nature, so practitioners learnt about and experienced CBA simultaneously. Although the participants rated the program favorably, we identified two main challenges associated with the training course: anxiety around the CBA and the need to be aware of the learners’ cultural climate. Recommendations for others who are developing similar training programs that model a CBA are discussed.
