This book offers an investigation of the notion of professional competence, the ways in which it is acquired and assessed, and how this knowledge might best be used to create useful professional development programmes.

Its overall aim is ?...to throw light on how professional competence is acquired??, and its authors seek to examine questions surrounding the distinctiveness and development of professions, and what it is that makes a professional effective and competent. It hopes to be useful to those responsible for the development of professionals, those interested in the sociology of professions, those interested in competence and informal learning, and individual professionals who are interested in self-development.
Beginning with a sociological and historical perspective on the development of professions, Cheetham & Chivers attempt to unravel the meaning of the word ?profession? through an interrogation of various definitions which reveals the slipperiness of the terms we use everyday. It could be argued that their attempt to come up with a workable definition to guide their research and underpin the book is lacking an ethical dimension which precludes the social aspect of the professions? relationships with (and responsibilities to) the public.
