Creating Qualification Types
Competencies can have identified qualification methods, such as a license or a test, for example, a life-saving qualification or a degree. You can enter all the ones your enterprise recognises, this includes:
- all educational qualifications
Not only can you enter different types of qualifications, but you can also rank them, if required. For example, you could rank a masters degree as 1, a degree as 2, 'A' levels as 3, and so on. You can also rank equivalent qualifications at the same level. For example, you can rank a degree and a BTEC Higher as level 2. This is useful, for example, if you later want to do an ad hoc query and find all people within the category of Education, with a qualification of 2 or above.
