The current study emphasize on the development of a comprehensive measurement instrument for workers’ competencies.

The creation of a genuinely valid competency-based assessment strategy can yield great benefit, not only to the professions, but to the whole community. Under a competency-based assessment system, assessors make judgments, based on evidence, about whether an individual meets criteria specified in the profession's competency standards (Gonczi, Hager & Athanasou, 1993).
