The paper describes the research on teachers’ competencies with regard to two forms of learning, i.e. a full-time form of study and blended learning. The research was also tasked to document a difference in the evaluation of these partial competencies in the full-time form and in the blended learning form. This paper deals with the research on the competence assessment of English teachers at the School of Business Administration in Karvina among students in both forms of studies. The introduction outlines the issue of competencies as a result of political, social, and economic changes affecting education in the 21st century. Education is given to deeper relations, in particular with regard to the growing meritocratic aspect. The next part of the paper provides a selection in the list of the most important outcomes of a conceptual nature of key competencies and these are followed by the terminology scope of teachers’ competences. The aim of the research is the analysis of data focused on teachers’ competencies affecting the assessment of the quality of teaching foreign languages. Competencies examined were the readiness of teachers to teach and the clarity of their interpretation, erudition, communicability and suitability of transmitting information, and the flexibility of the individual approach to students and their inspiration.
