I am studying competencies in project management and I have a conpectual question: Competence and Competency – Is There a Difference?
Fernando Escobar
Competence is defined as the “ability to do something well or efficiently” by American Heritage Dictionary. According to Bloom et al. (2001), competency can be defined as “a specific, identifiable, definable, and measurable knowledge, skill, ability and/or other deployment-related characteristic in a job and has a work-orientation perspective”.
As stated by Birnbaum and Daily (2009), competence is based on the acquisition of a set of competencies. Pursuant to competencies are based on an accepted standard or are used to define it - thus, a standard is achieved by acquiring a set of competencies.
