Competency Models
Everyone uses competencies
everyday. They are simply the knowledge, skills and abilities needed to
successfully perform at work, in school and in everyday life. A competency
model is useful to organize the competencies needed to perform in a particular
work setting such as a job, an occupation, or an industry.
Competency models form the
foundation for developing curriculum and selecting training materials, and for
licensure and certification requirements, job descriptions, recruiting and
hiring, and performance
reviews.
