Competency Library

Competency Library overview

The Competency Library is a shared catalog of competencies that can be reused across frameworks.

Why use the library

Use the library when a competency should mean the same thing across several job families.

This helps teams avoid rewriting similar expectations in different places.

How library competencies work

A library competency includes a name, focus, and expectations across proficiency levels.

When imported into a framework, those proficiency levels are mapped to the framework's job levels.

Library and framework differences

Framework authors can adapt expectations locally. When local content differs from the library, SkillsMap can help authors review and resolve the difference.
