As it is already indicated by researchers in the field of competency theory, competence based curricula should be aligned with competence based assessment which needs: contextualized practice (authentic environment), multiple assessors, integration of instruction and assessment, collaborative culture, increased student responsibility for learning, transparency of assessment, provision of appropriate and timely feedback to students, and changing role of teachers from lecturers to facilitators, among many others. Unfortunately, these CBA principles were found not properly practiced. Though the government of Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia declared; particularly, in its proclamations that HEIs should follow competence-based approach and introduced business process reengineering to foster the reform, teachers were still practicing the behaviorist paradigm. This paradigm, in its turn, is accused of fragmentation of learning. Therefore, competence-based education and competence-based assessment though formalized in legal documents; it is concluded, are still practiced as the resemblance of behaviorist approach.
