The right competencies for every role, assigned automatically

Set once, assigned every time

Your organisation sets out once which competencies each role needs, and Compassly applies it every time. When a Manager adds a job description for someone, they choose where the person works, and Compassly suggests the services and roles found there, highlighting the roles your organisation has linked to that person's profession, so setting someone up is quick and accurate. Compassly then adds the matching competencies to the person's lifelong learning passport.

Two people in the same role and the same place get the same core set every time, whether that is a new midwife on the labour ward or a staff nurse on a medical ward. That consistency is what gives you confidence that everyone has what their role requires.

Because a job description records where someone works and what they do, Compassly also uses it to place them in the right teams automatically, so their supervisors can see and support them from the start. Our page on teams and organisation structure explains how.

Existing work always counts

Many people need competencies from more than one role's set. When the same competency appears in several, it shows once, and it is included if it is core in any of them, so each person has one clear list.

Competencies the person already holds are listed first, and Compassly links their existing record to the new job description, so their progress carries over and their time goes on what is new to them.

Everyone accounted for

A job description is what assigns a person's competencies and places them under the right management. Some people deliberately don't have one, such as those in admin or reporting roles, so the Dashboard shows everyone in your organisation without an active job description and Compassly asks a Manager to confirm before adding someone without one. Gaps are always visible, and every exception is a deliberate choice.
