| When the Board and the members of the Special Committee met prior to the Assembly 2001 in Kassel, a new synthesis of Quality and Competency began to take shape. |
At the 2001 Assembly in Kassel, a simulation of one approach to collecting information about a profile was practiced. This resulted in a very interesting "profile" of the reflections of these participants while they were doing FI. This somewhat informed us about the strengths and weaknesses of the methodology called DACUM and also gave some hints about the strengths and weaknesses of the Task Analysis methodology.
Following the endorsement of the IFF Competency project by the Assembly, the Competency Profile group reviewed the methodology and processes, plus the feedback. The Competency Profile group began the process of integrating:
- the possibilities envisaged by the previous Assemblies,
- the values and constraints that had been articulated at Assemblies,
- the research,
- the learnings from simulations at the Assembly
with the intention of identifying as concretely as possible how a Competency Profile process might develop.
