Why Learning Completion Does Not Prove Workplace Capability
Why completion data needs to be complemented by structured evidence of workplace application, judgement and behaviour.
The design question
What remains unknown when a learning programme has been completed?
01
Knowledge confirms what a person understands, not necessarily how they will act in context.
02
Realistic workplace situations make reasoning, communication and judgement observable.
03
Readiness decisions are stronger when evidence is structured against explicit criteria.
Applying the principle
Use completion measures and capability validation for different purposes. Keep the distinction visible in programme design, evidence records and decisions about readiness.
