Competency assignment types


Article Summary

Depending on how a competency is assigned it will have a different assignment type. The three assignment types are:

  • Individual (Admin): The competency is assigned to individual users via the admin interface.
  • Individual (System): If an assignment has been archived there is an option to Enable continuous achievement tracking for all users involved. This allows continuous tracking even though the original assignment does not exist any more. All the users previously assigned will get a system assignment in this case. You can also enable the Continuous achievement tracking setting (Quick-access menu > Competencies > Competency settings) for all users who fall out of an assignment (e.g. due to a changing position).
  • Directly assigned: The competency was assigned by a user to themselves via the competency profile, or assigned by a manager to one of their staff members for example.

C013 - Competencies(1)The Totara Academy has a whole course dedicated to using Competencies in Totara. Here you can learn more on how to use competencies, see best practice, and give it a go yourself.
