Innovative Approach to Developing Competencies for Business Practice

The book chapter introduces the research findings on the application of teaching methods in higher education in Slovenia that positively affect the process of developing students’ transversal competences. The goal of the research was to explore the teaching methods that should be applied in the process of improving transversal competences of students in higher education, from two perspectives: developing students’ transversal competences at institutions of higher education and demands of the labour market regarding the required qualifications of graduates. Namely, contemporary business practice recognises transversal competences as increasingly important, due to their impact on innovation and development of society and economy. Higher education institutions have important role when diminishing mismatches between students’ competences and applicable requirements of the labour market.
