Competency models are tools which help in managing the competencies on organisation has and needs. A competency model of an organisation may, for example, identify the required competencies and group them in a meaningful way informs the organisation about the required actions [2].

are used for establishing the competencies an organisation needs in order to prepare consistent recruitment plans, training plans and other human resource development programmes. Competency models can help organizations align their initiatives to their overall business strategy. By aligning competencies to business strategies, organizations can better recruit and select employees for their organizations. In addition to recruitment and selection, a well sound competency model will help with performance management, succession planning and career development. [1]



Competency models can be used to identify the present state and future needs of an organization or an individual role. This approach helps to identify gaps in competencies and may provide input e.g. to training need analysis or recruitment plans. Competency models are tools for staff qualification, career planning and professional progression.


Competency framework for regulatory bodies

Fig 1 depicts a four-quadrant competency model developed for regulatory bodies. In this case, one general model is developed for the whole regulatory body and it is further refined for specific functions under the regulatory body organization, e.g. technical tasks and legal tasks. This model is discussed in more detail in Ref. [2].
