The Triple A Competency Model is a knowledge engine which uses structured BIM competency items to perform three complementary actions: competency Acquisition, competency Application and competency Assessment. For example, this is a structured competency item: ““prepare a 3D model for the purpose of linking it to a Construction Schedule” which can be used in three different ways to:
- ASSESS (measure): Do you have the ability to prepare a 3D model for the purpose of linking it to a Construction Schedule?
- ACQUIRE (learn): At the end of the course, students of <<course name>> would have learned how to prepare a 3D model for the purpose of linking it to a Construction Schedule.
- APPLY (implement): Use <<software tool>> to prepare a 3D model for the purpose of linking it to a Construction Schedule.
