What is Competency and Why Should You care?

Competency is the capability to apply or use a set of related knowledge, skills, and abilities required to successfully perform “critical work functions” or tasks in a defined work setting. Healthcare clinicians’ competency is required to drive safety, reduce errors, and ensure quality of care.

The success of your business relies on your clinician’s ability to provide comprehensive care that meets your clients’ complex and diverse needs.

Passing Score vs. Proficiency Ranking

Standard scoring uses a numerical percentage to show pass / fail ratings. Competency Exchange, instead, uses an algorithmic driven assessment ranking a clinician’s proficiency with speciality peers.

The ranking scale demonstrates a clinician’s level of skill from novice to expert.
