skills enhancement and/or upgrading qualifications Explanation: I agree that kompetensutveckling can be difficult to translate. Skills enhancement is a term that comes up regularly, but does not always fit. Upgrading qualifications is another that I use in various forms 'to upgrade qualifications' etc. I used to feel that 'competence' had a ring of mediocrity in some contexts, as if the need to mention it called it into doubt, but correctly used, competence is OK. 'To lead others and help them develop the the competence they need to do their jobs... ' A lot of the google hits I have found that do use 'developing competence' etc. appear to be translated however... As you have a 90-page document, you may find the situations vary. The training and coaching needed for supervisers and safety representantives wil be very different from what is needed at middle and top management levels. If it leads to actual certificates, diplomas, or new subject areas , then I call it something to do with upgrading qualifications. If it is general social and leadership skills or communications, then I often go for skills enhancement. See what others suggest... |
