There are two types of competences; checkbox and levels, these are described below. Users may have competences, whereas equipment types and tasks may require competences.
Competences in the + modules work much like the competences in the old modules, and in fact the old competences setup is copied to the new setup. Competences may be organized into categories; this is only to help you structure the competences if you have many.
Checkbox
This is a competence that you either have or don’t have, like “More than 5 years experience”.
Levels
This is a competence with multiple levels, like “Can speak spanish” or “Security clearance level”. The lowest level should always be treated as “don’t have the competence”, so for spanish the levels may be “None”, “Tourist”, “Experienced”, “Fluent”.
