Abstract :
Measuring competencies may serve as a feedback mechanism as well as a judgment device for a lecturer. As measuring every competency from a catalogue of competencies is not very viable, the to-be-measured competencies are grouped in competency profiles. Further, assessment practices are shown and applied to a course in a study program. A discussion of useful practices concludes this contribution.
