Competency Modeling (FREE AND OPEN TO MEMBERS ONLY)

Link to registration page

This one-day class is the debut of our course created by lifetime WRIPAC member, Rod Freudenberg, PhD, and Shelley Langan.  Through a combination of lecture, discussion, and individual and group exercises, participants will gain an understanding of the terms and application of "Competency" and "Competency Modeling" and how it complements Job Analysis.  This course will address issues that competency modeling might resolve, design parameters, key design features, rating and sorting duties and competencies and how to apply competencies in examination design.

This course will be free to members and limited to one attendee per member agency on a first-come, first-served basis.  If additional seats remain after December 28, 2016, the class may be opened up to additional (member & non-member) participants.
