Summary

The Competency Classification attribute allows an Activity Definition or Activity Instance to be associated with one or more nodes of a Competency Model. Optionally, additional metadata (such as Units, Proficiency, etc) can be tracked for each association.

This can be used to indicate the competencies that a given training course focuses on, and then be used to construct requirements around those competencies. For instance, a requirement could be written that says an application must demonstrate at least <n> units of training focused on specific skills, and <m> units of training focused on other skills.

Configuration

This is an Intrinsic Attribute, so there is only one defined attribute per supported entity. To modify its configuration you will need to use the Attribute Definition Editor in the Sys Admin area, and you will need to manually modify the JSON configuration.

JSON configuration schema 
{
  InputMode = "GRID or TREEVIEW",
  MaxSelections = 1,				  	// only supported for TREEVIEW
  MultiSelectCompetencyModelId = null,  // Required for TREEVIEW mode; ID of the comp model to select from
  AllowCustomCompetencies = false,		// only supported for TREEVIEW; allows user to add their own value
  CustomCompetencyModelId = null		// ID of the competency model to store user-defined competencies in
}

This attribute can collect data using one of two different "InputModes":

  • "GRID" = displays a grid that allows metadata, such as Proficiency and hours-per-competency-area, to be collected for each selected Competency Area. In this mode, the Competency Model Id is pulled from the Learning Plan Definition.

  • "TREEVIEW" = displays a simple treeview from which the user can select one or more Competency Area. Does not collect any additional metadata about the association. In this mode, the Competency Model Id must be explicitly specified in the JSON config.
