SYNOPSIS

We often use the terms 'knowledge', 'skills' and 'competence' interchangeably. However there is an ISO standard that specifically addresses this topic. In this talk, Kevin Streater, chair of the BCS Learning & Development Specialist Group will unpack these terms, and how different skills frameworks are actually aligned with each other.

Our speaker, Kevin Streater, is an expert in IT skills development frameworks and a contributor to the SFIA and SFIAplus frameworks. Kevin is a Vice President at ForgeRock, where he leads the global customer education business and is an expert in IT and Cyber Security skills development with over 20 years’ experience as a specialist in competency assessment, digital credentialing, and educational technology. Prior to ForgeRock, Kevin was Executive Director, Employer Engagement at The Open University, UK, after 19 years in various technical and management roles at Sun Microsystems.

Kevin is chair of CEdMA Europe, the IT vendor education management trade association, Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Information Security, Chartered Fellow of BCS, the Chartered Institute for IT, Chartered Fellow of the Chartered Management Institute and Fellow of the Learning and Performance Institute, Liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Information Technologists and head judge for the UK IT Industry Awards.
