  ACVE - Competency-Based Education and Training
For its opponents, CBET is excessively reductionist, narrow, rigid, atomized, and theoretically, empirically, and pedagogically unsound (Chappell 1996; Hyland 1994).

 Teaching, learning and NVQs: challenging behaviourism and competence in adult education theory and practice
CBET strategies are, however, seriously flawed and ill-equipped to deal with education and training beyond the level of basic skills and, moreover, are largely irrelevant to teaching and learning in adult education contexts.
The mechanistic and behaviourist nature of CBET is at odds with the work of adult education practitioners and with the requirements of professional development in the field.
It is perfectly proper for adult educators to be interested in the 'outcomes' of programmes as well as the learning processes, knowledge and values constitutive of their fields of interest - so long as the outcomes in question do not overly pre-determine content and methodology or foreclose learning options.
