ProjectExperts' Project Management CompModel Levels
Learning
Intensity Levels and Demonstrated Competences at that Level
Use these tables as a reference when rating Competences. The top table is for
Cognitive Competences, the bottom table is for Affective or soft-skill Competences.
The tables are based on our adaptation of Bloom’s Taxonomy of Learning.
