This article examines the competency-based assessment system in higher education. Due to changes in the education system and the need to update the methods of assessing student achievement, competency-based assessment is being introduced in many universities. This system is aimed at measuring not only the theoretical knowledge of students, but also their practical skills. The competency-based assessment approach helps to set clear goals between teachers and students, improve the teaching process, and develop students' self-assessment skills. The article also discusses the advantages of this system and its role in improving the quality of education.
