Type: CompetencyDefinitions

HR-XML 3.0 Standards, 2009 September 23.

Complex Type: CompetencyDefinitionsType

Parent type:	None

Name	CompetencyDefinitionsType
Documentation	Dictionary Entry Name: Competency Defintion. Detail Definition: A structured description of meaning(s) or semantics associated with a one or more competencies. A Reusable Competency Definition (RCD) is reusable in that it is without a specific context. Hierarchical competency taxomomies or non-hierarchical "maps" may be composed at an atomistic level of references to many RCDs. An RCD might represent a node at any given level of such a taxonomy. Thus, an RCD might be used for either course-grain competency "clusters" or fine-grain individual competencies. Usage Rule: The RCD concept is important for simplifying HR transactions. The basic idea is that full definitional content does not have to be communicated within each transaction. Instead of passing the full content, identifiers are exchanged referencing definitions that are known or discoverable by the trading partner.
