전문가적 역량(Professional competence)

일상적인 실천에서 자신이 복무하는 개인과 공동체의 이익을 위해 의사소통, 지식, 기술적 기술, 임상적 추론, 감정, 가치 및 성찰의 습관적이고 현명한 사용.
Building on prior definitions,1- 3 we propose that professional competence is the habitual and judicious use of communication, knowledge, technical skills, clinical reasoning, emotions, values, and reflection in daily practice for the benefit of the individual and community being served.

전문적 역량은 사실적 지식과 명확한 해결책으로 문제를 해결하는 능력 이상이다. 
모호한 문제를 관리하고, 불확실성을 용인하며, 제한된 정보로 의사 결정을 내리는 능력으로 정의된다.
Schon16 argues that professional competence is more than factual knowledge and the ability to solve problems with clear-cut solutions: it is defined by the ability to manage ambiguous problems, tolerate uncertainty, and make decisions with limited information.
