1 Scope

1.1 General

This part of ISO/IEC 20006 provides:

• — a general framework for dealing with competency information in information technology for learning, education, and training (ITLET) contexts;
• — a system architecture for managing and exchanging competency information and its related objects;
• — an information model for expressing competency and its related objects that includes an introduction to the composition of competency;
• — use cases used to support the development of the general framework and competencyinformation model.

This standard is for those who design and use learning systems and human resources systems to support management and exchange of competency information using ITLET systems.

NOTE This International Standard is related to the Conceptual Reference Model developed in ISO/IECTR 24763. Information regarding the relationships between the ISO/IEC 20006 and ISO/IEC TR 24763 is provided in this standard.

This multi-part International Standard also includes the following parts: ISO/IEC 20006‑2 :—, Information technology for learning, education and training – Information model for competency – Part 2: Proficiency level information model, which provides

• — information model for expressing semantics of competencyproficiency and its levels, and
• — use cases used to support the development of the competencyproficiency level information model;

ISO/IEC TS 20006‑3 :—, Information technology for learning, education and training – Information model for competency – Part 3: Guidelines for aggregation of competency information and data, which provides

• — guidelines and a data driven architecture for the development of specific data models managing aggregation of competency information and related objects,
• — ways to aggregate competency information and its related object data, and
• — use cases used to support the development of the guidelines for aggregation of competency information and competency data.1)
