description The paper deals with the construction of architectural competency, starting from the entwinement of the terms competency and competence. Following the etymology of the two words, we define the distinction between them through the problem of time. On the one hand, competence is atemporal in nature, while on the other hand, competency is necessarily directed at the present. The bond with the present is explained by defining competency as the capacity to produce the new, understood as Deleuzian difference, which objectifies time and always puts it in the order of the present. In the discipline of architecture, the concept of competency is defined through the problem of the extensiveness of theory, which obviates the production of the new. In that sense, competency is interpreted as the ability to preserve the (conceptual) unity of the singular new, despite the impossibility of reconstructing the real as a whole.
