Using Competencies or Skills
If you have Oracle Human Resources and Oracle Training Administration installed in your enterprise, you can hold the qualifications, attributes and knowledge that students can expect to attain by attending training activities as:
- a mixture of both (competencies and skills)
If you are developing the competence approach, we suggest you hold the qualifications, attributes and knowledge gained from training activities as competencies. If you only have Oracle Training Administration, you can hold the qualifications, attributes and knowledge as skills.
For a full discussion of the competence approach, see Introducing Career Management Activities

Phasing in Delivered Competencies
If you are developing the competence approach, but you have already set up skill types in Oracle Training Administration, you can:
- continue to use skill types
- switch straight away to using competencies
- phase in competencies, over time
Implementing Competencies or Skills
To phase in the delivery of competencies through training activities, we enable you to indicate whether you want the Skills or the Competencies buttons to be available from the Activities window.
