The global skills and competency framework for the digital world

#28 Digital Use Skills - introduce this area change request deferred

Introduce a number of 'digital Use skills'

From Australian Public Sector SFIA Forum:

Consider introducing digital use skills mostly at L1 & L2

The reasoning behind this is that for many users their work is largely administrative and there are no skills identified in SFIA in this area. They may be 'stepping stones' for future roles or just may be users skills. 

One reason for doing this is to enable all people working with IT systems being able to have a SFIA skills assessment to identify their skills rather than to have to exclude large numbers of staff because their skills don't naturally match the current scope of SFIA.

Copied from SFIA 9. See there for any old comments.

Current status of this request: deferred

What we decided

Some additions made to SFIA 9 levels of responsibility and the work on behavioural factors.

 Add to SFIA development roadmap.

What we changed

Detailed investigation into this area has identified significant potential and opportunity for SFIA to add value in this space.
