This paper seeks to determine whether the competency-based approach (CBA) is employed in the Algerian higher education institutions, particularly in the literature class, by answering the question: to what extent is the CBA used at the university level? The stakeholders involved in this endeavor are twenty EFL master-one students- specializing in literature and civilization, at the University of Oran2 and four literature teachers affiliating themselves with the same university. Two different sorts of questionnaires were designed for this investigation-the first is for students, while the second is for teachers. The questionnaires are centred around five major themes-teacher-student relationship, teachers' and students' roles, teachers' expectations, students' involvement, and assessment- that are thought to be determinants of the CBA's presence in the higher-education literature class. The results show that the competency-based approach is far from being completely implemented.
