Assessing Competency Level

All competency models require mechanisms to enable individual talent, talent developers, and talent seekers to assess the proficiency level of each competency. Defined proficiency levels are essential to deliver on the full potential of any competency model. For the pilot, we provide a simple three-tiered proficiency scale that reflects the progression from basic demonstration to advanced demonstration of each of the 25 Competencies for Life.

Refer below for a comprehensive three-level proficiency scale for the Competencies for Life. Competencies are very context specific, therefore, for each level we provide an example of how each may be applied progressively in a workplace.

The full deployment of Competencies for Life will incorporate a variety of formal proficiency assessment mechanisms for talent seekers, talent developers and individual talent.
