Competency Center
A competency center is an organization’s department or team that oversees business information and data. Responsibilities include providing access to fact-based knowledge and skills that other departments or employees need. A competency center most commonly deals with internet technology (IT) skills for an entire enterprise. Providing support for application development, software skills, data management, internet development, and network design among others is a primary responsibility.
What Small and Midsize Businesses Need to Know About Competency Center
Any business can benefit from some form of a competency center. An SMB with only a few employees can avoid confusion, lost time and productivity, and miscommunication with an up-to-date collection of fact-based information that employees can easily access.
