Adding or Editing Competencies

Competencies can be used with your Evaluation form to better understand how competent an employee is at a certain aspect and if they could use improvement. 

We have a number of pre-built competencies that can be modified or added to.

We also offer a video training on this topic on Arcoro Learning.

Navigating to Competencies
  • Go to Performance Admin in the menu bar and click Add/Edit Competencies from your Performance module.

    • Competency - This is the name of the Competency and will appear in the drop-down competency menu when you create a question and tie it to a competency.
    • Description - The description will appear within the question text for a question within an evaluation when the competency has been selected for a question.
    • Score Card - This Score Card menu is used to create the rating scale. The colors, red, yellow, and green, will give managers and administrators a visual within Succession Planning of their high versus low performers. The number score will be included in the visual, while the colors can make it easier to view at a glance.
      • You can use different values and do not need to adhere to a 3-point rating scale. For example, you can use a 5-point rating scale and distribute it as 0-2, 2.1-4, and 4.1-5.
      • You can use different value ranges to emphasize the importance of one competency over another. For example, the green values for safety are in a much narrower range than it is for communication because safety is so important in a particular industry.
      • Values cannot overlap amongst the provided fields.
  • Click Save when finished.

After creating the competency, it can be associated with a question for your evaluation.
