Managing Competencies

Introduction

Three key features are configured on the competencies screen: competency authorities, competency outcome types, and competency outcomes.

A competency authority is the body responsible for determining whether or not specific job competencies have been met. Competency outcome types are categories of skill types; not the specific skills themselves. Competency outcomes are the specific skills required (to be considered competent by a competency authority).  

Procedure

1.      From the Settings menu, select the Competency sub-menu, and then select Competencies from the left hand side menu.
