Competency Model Clearinghouse

Competency models can be used as a foundation for developing curriculum and selecting training materials; to develop licensure and certification requirements; and for other purposes.  The manufacturing competency model can be accessed through the Competency Model Clearinghouse, which is also linked to the O*NET and Career Voyages.  This tool will enable industry, educators, and government to match investments in training to the specific skills needed in the workplace. The clearinghouse will be updated to reflect changing skill requirements and add new resources as they are developed.
