Le competenze– sfide e risultati Using standards of competence in Italy? Don’t • Translate the UK standards and expect them to work. • Use the standards exclusively for qualifications. • Make the standards overly complicated. Do • Agree why you need standards, what you want to do with them and what benefits you expect. • Establish your own key purpose and carry out your own functional analysis, involving and gaining commitment from key stakeholders. • Develop your own standards – by all means benchmark these to the UK standards. • Test these out under pilot conditions and develop case studies of success. • Promote the use of the standards throughout the range of human resources and organisational management purposes.
