Competency Mapping for Technical Educational Institutes in India

Achieving and maintaining organizational excellence in a technical educational institution largely depends on the competencies of faculty members. Consequently, the management of faculty competencies are very important for any technical educational institution. Work skills lead to significant organizational growth which provides a competitive advantage to technical educational institutions. A critical factor related to the long-term success of an institution is its ability to assess the efficiency of the faculty and use that knowledge to achieve tangible results. For the overall development of students and the organization, knowledge of faculty members about mapping systems and process upgradation is important. This chapter discusses in depth the mapping of competences in the technical educational institute at different levels and analyzes the deficiencies in required skills to improve the level of competency. The research was carried out by taking a study on a government engineering institute based at Haryana, India as a model technical educational institute.
