In collaboration with the US Department of Labor, the National Geospatial Technology Center (http://www.geotechcenter.org/) and the Geospatial Technology Consortium of Community Colleges (GTC3) are updating the Geospatial Technology Competency Model (GTCM) so that it can remain relevant for the geospatial industry. We are conducting this evaluation to determine what modifications are needed for the existing competency model. Your input will be aggregated and provided to another panel for review. Afterwards, we will distribute our findings to the larger geospatial community for an open discussion.
Listed in Tier 1 - 3 are examples of competencies that many geospatial professionals will be expected to demonstrate during their careers. Tier 3 – Workplace Competencies represent motives and traits, as well as interpersonal and self-management styles. They are generally applicable to a large number of occupations and industries.
This list is exemplary, not exhaustive; geospatial professionals are called upon to demonstrate other abilities and knowledge depending on their particular roles and positions.
