Background Information
The typical minimum level of education to perform this job
competently is equivalent to completion of a university (bachelor)
program in a specialized field of study and work. The work requires
a sound understanding of the underlying theoretical principles and
concepts associated with the subject area and an understanding of
the relation of these to the responsibilities of the job. This
specialized training is often recognized by a degree and/or
professional designation.
Directly/indirectly related work experience representing continuous
learning and required for someone to perform this job competently
is six to ten years.
Ongoing work assignments typically have only generally defined
goals and provide no (or minimal) direction with respect to what
action steps to follow. The abstract nature of the work is such
that the incumbent's education, training, and previous experience
cannot assure either the goal or the approach can be clearly
understood because the tangible product or service resulting from
the work often does not exist when a project is initiated.
