About the Programme

Key / 'core' competencies are variously defined as 'the skills that enable an organization to deliver a fundamental customer benefit', 'what a company's staff excel at', or 'something which competitors cannot easily copy and which can be applied in a variety of different business situations'. This programme demonstrates how to create a set of competencies for an organization, which can be used as an important Human Resources tool for the recruitment and retention of staff. Managing and monitoring staff performance is made much easier and more effective through the development of effective competencies that are specific and tailored to your organization.
