• Key Concepts: 
  Competency Source is a feature in the SuccessFactors Learning Management System (LMS) that allows users to create and manage competencies. Competencies are skills, knowledge, and abilities that are required for a job or role. Competency Sources allow users to define the criteria for each competency, such as the required level of proficiency or the type of training needed to acquire the competency. 
  
  How to Use It: 
  To use Competency Sources, users must first create a competency profile. This profile includes the name of the competency, a description of what it entails, and any criteria that must be met in order to acquire it. Once the profile is created, users can then assign it to employees or groups of employees. Employees can then use the Competency Source to track their progress towards acquiring the competency. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a Competency Source, it is important to ensure that the criteria are clear and measurable. This will help employees understand what they need to do in order to acquire the competency. Additionally, it is important to review and update Competency Sources regularly in order to ensure that they remain relevant and up-to-date.
