What should i consider when implementing a competency-based training system

Government regulations, directives, and guidelines are gradually catching up to ISO standards in the requirement of competency-based training.

To establish and maintain a competency-based training program, the following steps must be taken:

  1. 1
    Identify competency-based training requirements and needs,
  2. 2
    Deliver training content,
  3. 3
    Evaluate the effectiveness of training.

In this paper, Kevin Bogert identifies the key ISO standards that require competency-based training, a breakdown of the requirements that your electronic system should have, and what you should include in the competency-based training matrix.
