استعرض مصدر Gerontology competencies for undergraduate & graduate education

==APPLICATION OF COMPETENCIES TO GERONTOLOGY EDUCATION==
The competencies may be applied to gerontology programs with majors, minors and certificate programs
at the associate, undergraduate and/or master’s level. Competency-based education and assessment will
require the specification of anticipated knowledge and skill development for the varying program levels.
Measurement of competency acquisition will relate to learning objectives, course assignments and evaluation
tools.

The competencies are NOT meant to be applied to a gerontology or geriatric focus or specialization within
other disciplinary programs (e.g. gero-psychology or geriatric nursing). Other disciplines and departments
of study often already have their own set of competencies. These competencies are specific to gerontology
education programs and focus on the knowledge, abilities and skills (KAS) of gerontologists.
