System higher education has already gained some experience in developing and implementing educational programs based on a competency-based approach, and now Federal Law No. 273-FZ extends this practice to additional professional education.

You can get acquainted with the main aspects of the competence-based approach in education, including on the Internet, on the websites of the Research Center for the Problems of the Quality of Training of Specialists, FGAU " Federal Institute development of education” and others.

Question 2. How should the implementation of additional educational programs be guided by a competency-based approach, and is this mandatory for short-term programs?
