Competencies are the observable or measurable skills, behaviors, knowledge, and abilities that are needed to determine how well individuals contribute or function in the workplace.

Competency management is a strategic process that helps identify, assess, and develop employee skills to meet business goals. By aligning the skills, knowledge, and abilities of the workforce with organizational goals and strategy, businesses can ensure they have the right people with the right skills in the right roles, which drives efficiency, innovation, and competitiveness.

Competency management helps businesses enhance recruitment, selection, and assessment methods, reduce turnover, increase productivity, and support future planning efforts such as business continuity, succession planning, and leadership development. Additionally, it helps employees understand the areas they need to improve to succeed in their current roles and prepare for future roles they may aspire to.

Many systems are cloud-based, enabling access from anywhere, and support virtual assessments and training recommendations.

If scattered spreadsheets and manual processes make it impossible to see which skills your team has (or lacks) and you're guessing at training priorities, a competency management system can centralize your role requirements and assessment results so you always know where to focus development.

It eliminates data silos by mapping skills to jobs automatically, pinpoints critical skill gaps, automates certification tracking, and ties learning activities to measurable business outcomes.
