Competencies in Learning
Note
If you wish to use Competencies within the SAP SuccessFactors Learning, they must be created in SAP SuccessFactors Career Development Planning first.
Competencies are measurable attributes such as skills, abilities, knowledge, or behaviors.
In SAP SuccessFactors, competencies can be set up in Job Profile Builder to describe what a successful employee in that job should be able to do. The Competency Connector - SF can be scheduled in the LMS to pull the competencies into the LMS where they may be associated to items or programs.
Competencies associated to an item indicate the level to which a user is expected to demonstrate the competency upon successful completion of the item. Items may be configured to automatically assess (rate) the associated competencies for the user when the user completes the item
When items have been associated to competencies, users may search for items by competency and add items as learning activities to their development plans in Career and Development Planner.
