Competency Assessment - What's That?
The Competency Assessment is an interactive tool that enables NCMA members to assess their experiences in line with NCMA's competencies, as outlined in the Contract Management Standard™ (CMS™).
It allows you to evaluate proficiency in key contract management competency areas—from the perspectives of both the buyer and seller. It provides learning recommendations for those in the beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels of their continuous learning journey.
The Competency Assessment allows you to:
- Assess your proficiency in key competencies found in NCMA’s ANSI-accredited Contract Management Standard™ (CMS™) Publication.
- Receive a rated score for each area, which will help you identify areas you may want to focus on for future training.
- Select self-study and formal training options from a comprehensive library—with content arranged by CMS™ competencies, buyer and seller, and level of experience. Learning recommendations are provided for those in the beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels of their continuous learning journey.
Suggested uses for Competency Assessment results include develop your professional development plan; discuss results with supervisors or mentors; include your higher-level competency scores in your résumé; and continue learning and growing in this exciting and demanding profession!
This complimentary resource is only available to NCMA members. Log into your NCMA member account, click on the “Learning” tab, then select “Competency Assessment” from the drop-down menu.
