ABSTRACT:
To be a competent employee today, one needs to be able to self-develop four types of competencies: 1) methodological competencies; 2) theoretical competencies; 3) meta-theoretical competencies; and 4) contextual competencies. This article argues that in order to help students develop these four types of competencies management education has to be learning centred. A learning centred management education comprises a move from traditional syllabus-driven didactic teaching to a learning-based paradigm in which the curriculum is seen as a learning centred action plan developed with the learning process of students as its nexus. At CBS Learning Lab at Copenhagen Business School we have recently formulated an overall learning strategy for the business school, which places learning as the central element of all teaching activities. We are in the middle of the process of implementing this learning strategy at the business school. This article uses CBS’ learning strategy as case to show how curriculum development and students’ learning processes are closely related. The article is relevant to academics responsible for curriculum development, and academics interested in learning processes of students.
