  2. Overview • Why a Common Reference Model? • An ICT industry example – SFIA • HI Competency mapping • Study findings • Adopting a global HI Skill set • What next

  3. Need for a Common Reference Model • Need global consistency in recognition of HI skills and knowledge • HI workforce management and planning • Many competency statements • HI Professionals move about • Organisational design, resource planning, recruitment, deployment, assessment, development, remuneration.

  4. An ICT Industry Example http://www.sfia-online.org/ • Skills Framework for the Information Age -SFIA • Standardised definitions • Understood by HR Managers and ICT workforce educators • Common language for IT skills development and deployment • Six categories, 96 professional IT skills defined • Used in over 100 countries

  5. HI Competency mapping • Based on extensive lit review • Ontological perspective applied relative to roles and functions • Common attributes used to draw together similar competencies • Scope applied to entire health ecosystem • Used 8 HI role examples to identify entry level skill sets • Active stakeholder engagement & validation • Three high level career pathways were identified

  6. Findings • SFIA – 6 high level categories • 19 subcategories & 96 unique IT skills • All well defined by responsibility level • HI knowledge/skill domain statements: • Lack clarity • Contain multiple concepts • Limited descriptions • 17% of HI statements could not be mapped to SFIA • 62% of those HI statements could fit with more than one SFIA skill • 30% SFIA statements could not be mapped to any HI

  7. Outcomeshttp://www.hisa.org.au/?page=CHIA • Australia has continued this development work collaboratively by HISA, ACHI, HIMAA, • Endorsed by HINZ, COACH • Health Informatics Competencies Framework v1 was released at the July 2013 HIC • Certification as from 2014
