摘要：AbstractIn this paper we propose a methodology to assess competences of project managers in rural Mexico. We therefore performed an exhausted international literature review on the concept of competence, its origins and evolution, in order to design their evaluation methodology and also identified the different approaches, tools and techniques currently used for the assessment of competences.Once we understand the concept of competence, have noticed that there are implicit knowledge in it, and having identified the competences needed by the project managers in rural Mexico, for the achievement of a integrated rural development within their territories, and integrated them into the design of the methodology, we have made a methodology considering the tools available in Mexico and framed in the current legislation, which could provide evidence of performance of this subjects. Also as part of the methodology we designed and validated a psychometric questionnaire to assess behavioral competences of the project managers in rural Mexico.The empirical application of the proposed methodology was performed at a case study in Mexico, particularly to providers of farming professionals services (PSP), students from a technological master designed under a competence approach by the Colegio de Postgraduados, an Institution of teaching, research and service in Agricultural Sciences. The results show that the proposed methodology is meaningful to assess competences in rural Mexico.
