Competency Standards are used by professions and governments to define the qualifications required for professionals to practise in a profession or discipline.
Competency is defined by a set of standards, which define the level of attainment at various levels.
Competency standards are the expected professional abilities and skills a teacher should develop through their initial training and as they continue to grow and develop in their professional service and practice, such as participation in induction and on-going in-service education and training.
