DEVELOP YOUR CORE COMPETENCIES

A core competency is a description of a particular behaviour, skill or attribute that all employees should possess to meet organizational needs, regardless of their job or role. Most federal government organizations have identified core competencies for their staff, and many non-profit and private sector organizations have as well.
