Spanish term or phrase: incumbencias profesionales de títulos y equivalencias de estudios
Hola a todos: la frase en cuestión aparece en un sello debajo de una firma en un certificado analítico de Argentina.
El sello completo dice así: "XX, Jefa de Departamento. Departamento Legalización, Homologación, Competencia Docente e *Incumbencias profesionales de Títulos y Equivalencias de Estudios*". (Sí, todo eso en un solo sello!)
Busqué en el glosario y figura "incumbencias profesionales" como "professional scope" pero no estoy muy segura de cómo resolver la frase completa.
Muchas gracias desde ya

Explanation:

XX, Jefa de Departamento. Departamento Legalización, Homologación, Competencia Docente e *Incumbencias profesionales de Títulos y Equivalencias de Estudios*"

=

XX, Director, Department of Verification of Degrees and Academic and Teaching Credentials

***
The position and department titles here seem ridiculously wordy and redundant. My suggested translation seems to capture what is involved with minimal awkwardness.

Or, to be more comprehensive:

XX, Director, Department of Degree Homologation/Verification and Academic and Teaching Credentials

Given the awkwardness of the Spanish, there is no way of avoiding at least some awkwardness in English.

Upon further reflection:

Director, Department of Homologation and Verification [of Academic Degrees and Teaching Credentials]

The bracketed text can, I think, be safely dispensed with.

agree  neilmac: Yes, the "CTC" (cut the c...) approach is definitely called for here IMHO.
