n What is competency?
The broad concept of industry competency concerns the ability to perform particular tasks
and duties to the standard of performance expected in the workplace. Competency requires
the application of specified skills, knowledge and attitudes relevant to effective participation
in an industry, industry sector or enterprise.
Competency covers all aspects of workplace performance and involves performing individual
tasks; managing a range of different tasks; responding to contingencies or breakdowns; and,
dealing with the responsibilities of the workplace, including working with others. Workplace
competency requires the ability to apply relevant skills, knowledge and attitudes consistently
over time and in the required workplace situations and environments.
