competencies

"competencies" is a business term that has a precise meaning. Not to be confused with "skills" ! Both terms are used in the title of this article:

and the article gives two separate lists, the first of ypical "competencies" and the second of typical "skills".

I first learned the difference when translating some business/economics academic papers for a university professor friend who teaches these subjects.
