Did you say "competence"?

The notion of competence is too often abused, regularly confused with knowledge, skill, task, even component or stage, as if all these concepts were interchangeable synonyms. Experts agree that it takes around 10,000 hours of work to develop a competency.
The aim of this activity is to make you aware of how these terms are used and, above all, to ensure that you talk about them using common reference criteria.
This learning unit will enable you to define and distinguish between the notions of TASK and SKILL, the cornerstones of job profile development and business needs planning.

A competency profile
This learning unit will enable you to create a competency profile for a fictitious position in an organization. You will then apply the same method to create a competency profile for a position in your own organization.
You'll be able to make full use of the notion of competency to describe in detail the tasks to be mastered for a given position, set the expected level of performance for each of these tasks, assess the performance status of all the people who hold this position, determine the gaps to be filled and plan training needs.

How to assess the criticality of job requirements 
The level of criticality is not the same for all skills, or even for all tasks within a given skill. Some tasks are critical and require a high level of performance, while others are less crucial and require a lower level of performance.
It is also possible for a task to be "critical" for one position and only "very useful" for another.
This learning unit will enable you to describe the requirements of a fictitious position in an organization and apply the same method to a position in your own organization.

How to assess the skills of jobholders
A position's competency profile is made up of three elements:

The list of competencies for that position;
The list of tasks describing each skill;
The expected level of requirement for each task.

We now need to assess the skills of the job holders in relation to the level of requirement expected for each task. This learning unit will enable you to assess the skill levels of the people occupying the positions in the fictitious case. It will also introduce you to the Excel tool you can use to draw up a competency profile for the positions in your organization.

Draw up an employee development plan in line with business objectives
Using the situation scenario, you will draw up a development plan for fictitious incumbents, applying the 70% - 20% - 10% rule.
Next, you'll see how to work with your colleagues to draw up a development plan that mobilizes employees, prepares the next generation and facilitates internal mobility, while contributing to the organization's long-term viability.
