Title
The Title or text of the skill entry. Skill entries are used in the task analysis for tasks, subtasks, and steps (aka skills) to state the developed capabilities that help with the acquisition of new knowledge or skills, in other words, skill entries state the skills that will make it easier to learn the task, subtask, or step. Skill entries can also state the prerequisite skill needed for the task, subtask, or step.
LEAD already contains the skill entries from the Department of Labor O*Net OnLine database, which are used on the Competencies tab. Feel free to add more specific skill entries, as needed, or even to expand on the existing ones.
When adding skill entries, concentrate on those that are needed for the successful completion of the task, subtask, or step, and not all possible skill requirements.
