“Competence does not continue - it evolves”

David began full-time consulting work after many years as an accomplished educator and administrator, with broad experience in post-secondary education (both public and private). To fully engage his expertise in outcome-based learning, in 1998 David founded Catalysis Consulting and remains as its owner and principal consultant.

David’s early focuses were the development of competency-based professional standards, and education program accreditation. Later work incorporated the design of assessment procedures for entry-to-practice in the professions, derived from workplace expectations.

Throughout David’s consulting work developing standards for entry-to-practice competence, he has faced from clients the obvious, but far-reaching, question: what happens to a professional’s entry-to-practice abilities over time, and how can the commonly-expressed expectation for “continuing competence” be properly understood and meaningfully managed? Fast-forward to the Framework for Career-Span Competence and the work of the CSC Collaborative.
