The Job Task Analysis/Skills and Knowledge Marriage. Part 2
Abstract
This paper (Part II) illustrates input and eventual employment of model tasks, skills and knowledges in the front-end job/task analysis subsystem of NEPDIS (Naval Enlisted Professional Development Information System). The four-part matrix displayed in Part I reflects a hierarchy with the task at the top and the associated knowledge elements at the bottom. The task-to-task element-to-component skill-to-component knowledge continuum provides an audit trail for the use of the training program or curriculum developer, whether the matrix is added to the existing master job/task inventory or provided as an ancillary data bank for specialized use. The principal goal is to set up a functioning audit trail (to justify a body of job-related technical information as actually component to or clearly underlying task performance). A secondary goal is to set up an occupational-field data bank and computerized retrieval methodology to support this aim. The outputs of front-end job/task/skill analysis can then be used both to describe (even construct) job/billets and the tasks performed by their incumbents, and to describe the skills and knowledge requirements for job incumbency, certification, advancement, and associated training.
