Section 3- Identification of Core Competencies

In this section of the survey, we would like your feedback on the IMPORTANCE and FREQUENCY of competencies (knowledge, skills and behaviors) that are critical to outstanding job performance.
Performance includes both achieving job-based performance standards, as well as demonstrating the competencies (knowledge, skills and behaviors) necessary for outstanding job performance. Sometimes it’s useful to think of Performance as both the “what” (job goals) and the “how” (job competencies).

We need your help in identifying the core competencies that are needed for exceptional performance here at CCF.
