Additional Resources to Help with Job Analysis
Detailed information on certification, licensing, and credentialing in the behavioral health care field can be found on this Web portal’s “Credentialing Search“ page. Additionally, the competency diffusion toolkit, A Provider’s Guide on How to Use Core Competencies in Behavioral Health provides detailed information on core competencies in behavioral health and public health. This toolkit explains what a competency is, the benefits of implementing competencies, and how they can be used to improve quality and professionalism. It answers the following questions: Why should your organization implement core competencies? What are the benefits of implementing core competencies to a provider organization (whether it is a public program, private non-profit, or for-profit)?
The following resources may also be used to help you with your job analysis:
