The Office of Personnel Management has asked agencies to identify
at least three staff members who are experts in one or more human
resources specialty areas–such as compensation or staffing–to
complete a survey designed to collect data necessary to use the
competencies in recruiting and selecting highly qualified HR
professionals.
“OPM is committed to making the confirmed HR competency model
available to agencies as soon as possible to assist them with
their human capital efforts,” a memo to human chief human capital
officers said. OPM recently provided agencies with the CHCOC
human resources competency model to be used for developmental
purposes during the Proud-to-Be III cycle. OPM said it wanted the
survey completed by February 10.
