Celebrating Collaborative Excellence: A Journey with IEEE 1484.20.2 Recommended Practice for Defining Competencies


gratitude: the feeling or quality of being grateful; thankful

That's the feeling that came over me when I received this beautiful acknowledgment from the IEEE team a few days ago!

Certificate of Appreciation Awarded by IEEE to Taruna Goel 

The IEEE 1484.20.2 Recommended Practice for Defining Competencies standard was published last year and was a culmination of 3 years of work led by Eric Shepherd who was supported by a strong executive team Steven Forth Linda Steedman Dennis Green Jennifer Rogers and a committed working group that included myself and many others.
 
As a competency nerd, I enjoyed being in the company of passionate, motivated, knowledgeable people who were all volunteering their time and whose single-minded goal was to discuss and document best practices for defining competencies: What makes a competency? What must be included in a definition of competency? What makes a good competency statement, etc.
 
In reflecting on this achievement, it's important to recognize that my contribution was just one piece of the puzzle. The collaborative spirit of the team and each person volunteering their time and expertise made this project truly remarkable. I feel humbled that I got to play a small role in this big project!
