View and update a Competency tree.

Create a Competency tree using PeopleSoft Tree Manager. You must specify the tree name as COMPETENCY and use the structure ID named COMPETENCY.

Organize competencies under competency types, such as ADMIN, EXPER, MGMT, and TECH. You can also maintain competency types within related types and define the Competency tree to be as simple or complex as you need.

To view the competencies in a particular type, use the dynamic detail feature of PeopleSoft trees in the Tree Manager component (PSTREEMGR) or Tree Viewer component (PSTREEVIEWER) in PeopleSoft Tree Manager. Square bracket [ ] nodes on trees represent the dynamic details.

To view a list of the competencies maintained under a competency type, select a square bracket node under a type and click Edit Data. The Competencies table detail appears. You can change a competency as necessary. Changes that you make from this page update the Competencies table.

To view the short and long descriptions of a competency type, select a type and click Edit Data. The Competency Types page appears.
