Abstract

This study investigates the awareness about competency assessment of the candidates for fourth class promotion, the competency factors and its operation, so that we find its problems and solutions. We carried out a questionnaire survey targeting the 64 candidates in April 2016. The results of this study are as follows. First, the candidates think that competency assessment system is helpful in improving reliability and fairness of promotion system and in eradicating nepotism. Second, the required competency factors needed to perform the role of fourth class public official are direction guidance, fostering, communication, integrative thinking, achievement management and power of execution in sequence. Third, in managing the competency assessment system, compulsory competency is considered more importantly than differentiated competency. Fourth, the candidates think that the competency assessment system can be applied advantageously to particular groups. Fifth, sufficient training period and information about the competency assessment system should be provided to solve the many problems caused by the lack of advance information about the system.
