Dimensions of competency definition
Dimensions of competency means that the assessment is not narrowly based on a task, but embraces all aspects of performance and represents an integrated and holistic approach to the assessment. The assessment process must take into account task skills, management and contingency skills, role skills and transfer skills. For example, instead of just assessing a 30° banked turn against the specified standard, it may be more realistic to observe the candidate performing the manoeuvre during a precautionary search (a contingency) where the turn is used to position the aircraft to observe and assess the landing surface (a role).
