Within the strategic challenges of the 21st century there are the clear signals that "business-as-usual" cannot continue. The Earth System is passing into a new phase of human experience that will be qualitatively and quantitatively different from the one we have known, and with the urgent demand for sustainable development.The essential role of quantity is known for understanding the challenges at sustainability, and among the attempts to capture its main features and quantities the sustainability performance indicators technique based at the concept of life cycle thinking is tested. Our life-cycle approach for modelling issues at sustainable development paradigm is represented, and it provides qualitative and quantitative outlook at sustainability challenges. A bulk of publications on environmental, social and economic themes has been turned into consideration which measures can be best used for sustainability competences practicing. The desired assessment at our version has the form of "Sustainability Competence Probability", where the "competence" is mentioned as being able to perform a work role to a defined standard, with reference to real working environments.
