What do I need to understand to begin the development of a competence base job description Know and have read the Knowledge and Skills Framework. Identified and agreed a profile of the role with the HR department. Considered directorate and professional targets and other influences on the role.
Considerations when developing a new job profile / description based on the KSF framework Stage 1 Identification of KSF profile using KSF dimensions
NEW Roles Ward / Department manager identifies need of patient /client group. Consults with named person / group who advise on approved profiles at a strategic level eg HR Dept. Document - profile sheet Purpose Confirm role mirrors the requirements of a patient centred service. Look for new ways of working Look to extend skills across professional boundaries and working boundaries i.e. not just another nurse, physiotherapist etc.

Purpose Identify core job families / roles with community partners. Look for advantages i.e. consistent remuneration. Test for transferability of competencies. Test for transferability of induction/ training standards. Stop hybrid job 2 descriptions.

Acquiring competence is a gradual process, it is expected that full competence against the performance indicators (as in column two) will be achieved in time. Meanwhile individuals are expected to achieve competence against indicators in a measured way. A subset specifies what must be achieved against the dimensions over a period; a subset must include at least 1 indicator in each dimension.
How do I profile the role? Use the KSF to identify the dimensions for the role

Leadership
Using the KSF and Competences for Job Descriptions and Development Review Job descriptions: a KSF work group profile, professional competences and business targets influence the development of a competency based job description. The Development Review Process makes use of competences at different stages.
Professional competences / requirements NB Each work group profile should be patient centred Business Plan Targets
KSF Dimensions
? Appointment Competences
(Person Specification)
? Induction competences
To be achieved in first 6 / 12 / 18 / 24 months
New Competences
Using competences is integral to Personal Development Planning process, which in turn feedback into the job description to make it an accurate reflection of the performance required.
Activity Instructions Agree on the role to be discussed, the tutor will supply you with a list of activities or a job description for one or more roles. Using the KSF come to an agreement on the KSF profile for the role under discussion. Record the profile on the sheet provided and then identify the level descriptors for the role, i.e. agree whether you think a dimension is either a, b, c, d, e. To consolidate your ideas try to fill in the overview of responsibilities for the role using the dimensions and level descriptors you have identified (sample document 2). This will provide the basis for a job description. To expand this job description try to compose the specific responsibilities for the role (see sample document 2). Remember to make the statements SMART.
