Appendix E


HRD Competencies*

The competencies are organized in three levels to show a development pattern for HRD practitioners: entry level, or "contributor" to solutions; mid-level, or "integrator" of solutions; and senior level, or "strategist" of solutions. At each level, the competencies listed in the technical and leadership/managerial categories are those that the HRD practitioner should master when at that level. It is assumed that HRD professionals will be working to develop all the competencies throughout their career.

*The HRD competencies were prepared by a special HRD Council task force—comprised of Marjorie L. Budd (Department of Defense), David Amaral (Department of the Navy), Randy Bergquist (Department of Transportation), and Paul Longanbach (Office of Personnel Management)—based on extensive review of models used in the public and private sectors, and the combined experience of task force members.
