Abstract The development of the core competence of physicians is related to the practice of medical quality. As the most important field for cultivating the core competence of physicians, how to achieve the construction and evaluation of core competence is an important issue for medical education and management. This study uses the large core competence framework proposed by the ACGME (Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education), and use Fuzzy AHP (FAHP) and DEMANTEL method to analyze the weight and priority, and the cause and effect cluster. Study result shows that the FAHP’s importance factor ranking is (1).patient care (C1) (27.83%), (2).medical knowledge (C2) (20.77%), (3).professionalism (C5) (17.93%), (4). Interpersonal and communication skills (C4) (17.41%), (5). practice-based learning and improvement (C3) (15.52%), and (6). systems-based practice (C6) (8.233%). In terms of DEMANTEL, the effect cluster include Patient Care (C1), Professionalism (C5) and Systems-based practice (C6), and the cause cluster includes Medical Knowledge (C2), Practice-based learning and improvement (C3) and Interpersonal and Communication skills (C4). According to finding, the patient care (C1) is the result of attitude, patience, and other five ACGME Core Competence Items. Therefore, the development of emergency physicians’ also needs humanities and ethics training and practice to follows the practice-based learning (C3). This study demonstrates to show on importance factor in emergency physician’s core competencies cultivate. Furthermore, the current findings can serve as a reference for future research in the other specialists physicians cultivate.

One of the challenges in higher education is leading students in the application of information from one course to learning material in subsequent coursework.  The authors have devised a joint project for courses in Logistics and Administrative Law to assist students in correlation of material in courses of two business majors, with emphasis on sustainability and college-identified core competencies.  Goals and construction of the project are discussed, with post-project feedback from students participating in the project, and assessment by the authors.

This chapter stresses the importance of putting core competence in its specific and accurate context to optimize its usefulness. Otherwise, the value might easily erode or even get totally lost. This research highlights core competence in the contexts of recruiting and educating IT project managers. A longitudinal study (2010 – 2013) scrutinized 325 advertisements for IT project managers. A core competence lens was used on the findings to test if such a lens was applicable to the project area (recruitment and training), which it was. This chapter follows-up on the prior research that proposes both recruitment and further training of IT project managers would gain from applying the core competence concept. The main reason for this goes back to understanding the importance of acknowledging the context, and of acting accordingly to reach customer perceived benefits/values. Core competence must be considered in the light of end products and business value.

The effects of perceived importance of external ties, a dimension of tie strength, on the performance of small owner-managed firms were investigated using data from a survey of the owners of small owner-managed firms in Scotland and New Zealand. Ties rated as highly important were found to promote growth in sales. In contrast, weak-in-importance ties were found to suppress growth in sales. The results support the core competence perspective on the configuration of external ties, suggesting that firms should focus on important external ties that contribute to their core competencies.

This study aims to evaluate the OSC Program in terms of the mechanism of obtaining scholarships through the online scholarship competition program, and the obstacles faced when screening scholarship candidates. Field observations and interviews are used to collect data, and PESTEL and SWOT techniques are collaborated to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The results show that this program has legitimacy and is officially supported by the Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education. Futhermore, OSC has a very clear, segmented and national target market. For private universities and sponsorships that are incorporated can raise the brand image of PTS and scholarship fund companies.

Abstract. The article is carried out an analysis of the competence-based approach, which is characterized by the broader boundaries of research and development, because it reflects best practices, takes into account the future requirements of the labor markets. Ways of targeting the learning process on the development of student's personality, the formation of its instrumental competencies are examined in the article. For example, the study of "General course of Physics" attempts to explain the formation of competencies of future teachers.
