Competencies
A competency is a qualification which is further divided into four types; Skills, Knowledge, Abilities, and Other Attributes. Your organization defines what is meant by each competency type. Optionally, assign a proficiency level to the competency types.
There are a number of advantages to using qualifications in your staffing and employee maintenance efforts. The advantages are:
-
Track qualifications to have complete information about your employees
-
Assess gaps between employee qualifications and job or position requirements to identify your organization's training needs
Use qualifications to search for "best fit" candidates when recruiting
