“I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test:
Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen and ask yourself if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him.
Will he gain anything by it? Will it restore him to a control over his own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to Swaraj for the hungry and spiritually starving millions?
Then you will find your doubts and your self melting away”
Gandhiji’s TalisMan

Foreword The present report is an outcome of a extensive exercise done by IIPA to framework the roles, activities and competencies of its all faculty members as per the recently approved Mission Karmayogi and National Programme for Civil Services Capacity Building guidelines,. It is a step towards improving the human resource management practices in the Institute.
We express our deep gratitude and thanks to J-PAL for conducting working sessions on FRACing process and brainstorming together to identify the competency dictionary for the IIPA Staff Members. We would like to express our deep sense of gratitude to their esteemed members Shri Siddharth Pandit, Shri A. Rabindranath, Ms. Nikita Jain, Ms. Simranjeet Dhir, Shri Shubhnit Mehra and Ms. Anognya Parthasarathy for their help extended to IIPA.
Special thanks to the internal FRACing unit (IFU) members: Prof. Ashok Vishandass and Dr. Amit Kumar Singh for working meticulously to shape and bring out the framework in this present form. Sincere thanks to Shri. Amitabh Ranjan, Registrar for his valuable suggestions to bring out this report in time.
Valuable insights have been provided by the faculty members of Indian Institute of Public Administration which helped immensely in identifying the provisional set of roles, activities and the corresponding competencies of faculty members.
I also tank all those who have not been explicitly mentioned here but who have contributed directly or indirectly worked to make this framework reality.

Prelude “In the era of globalisation and competition, training cannot remain an act of faith. It needs to demonstrate the returns on investment.” – National Training Policy, 2012
Competencies are required by an individual for effectively performing the functions of a role or a post. The need for competency driven capacity development and human resource management was introduced in the National Training Policy of 2012. It recommended a shift to strategic human resource management in which individuals’ competencies were matched with jobs, and training activities focus on bridging competency gaps for current and future roles.
Competencies encompass Behavioural attributes, Functional skills and Domain knowledge, which are required in an individual for effective performance. Behavioural competencies are a higher order or behaviours that are applicable across a range of jobs, functions and roles, within the organization. They describe the key values and strengths that help a department/organisation/official perform effectively in a range of jobs. Behavioural competencies attempt to de-layer the personality of an individual. Behavioural competencies straddle multiple roles and activities and cannot be limited to one set of roles and activities unlike functional and domain competencies. For example, ‘People First’, a behavioural competency, may be linked to many roles and activities, whereas ‘Financial Accounting Standards’ may only be required for those roles associated with financial and accounting related activities
Functional competencies describe the application of knowledge and skills needed to perform effectively in a specific role or group of jobs. They may also include job specific competencies that define the skills and knowledge needed to perform a specific role effectively.
Domain competencies are shared by a ‘family’ of related jobs that have common functions and form a logical career path. These competencies are defined for a specific department or business unit, but it may also define jobs across departments that share common tasks and functions.
At a strategic level, the competency framework (FRACs) will enable the government to successfully align official’s Attitude, Skills and Knowledge (ASK) with the government’s priorities. It will also provide stakeholders with clarity on the competencies that are required to successfully perform relevant roles and activities and enable identification of clear benchmarks against which an individual performs her duties.
Proficiency Levels for a Competency A competency further will have multiple levels of proficiency, from beginner to expert, organized in a stepped manner depicting gradual progression from one level to the other. As officials progress in career, it is desirable that they gain new competencies and evolve their proficiency in their current competencies. FRACs will therefore, also capture what are the required proficiency levels for each of the competencies and the associated performance or outcomes for the said role.
3
Development and operationalization of FRACs will be owned by the relevant departments and implemented by specialized agencies and will be conducted in parallel to the iGOT 2.0 rollout. To this end, DoPT will empanel such agencies and departments will select one such agency who in turn will work on the FRACs definition and operationalization. There are global best practices on how to identify activities from roles and link them to competencies, at a scale, and empanelled agencies specialized in such activities will conduct the exercise on behalf of departments. For behavioural competencies, DoPT will start with the Competency Dictionary of 2014 as the base and operationalize it. Domain and functional competencies will be developed at the relevant departments notified to be its owner.
FRACs as an ever-evolving Framework Roles and activities and its linked competencies are likely to change over time, especially in light of fast changing worlds, changing government priorities and changing citizen expectations from the government. Given the ever-evolving nature of FRACs, the development of courses and content for iGOT 2.0 does not have to wait till FRACs is fully developed. FRACs remains a living document, capturing newer competency needs as and when they arrive and driving the evolution of platform through signals on evolved content and evolved learning paths. The evolving and dynamic nature of FRACs, will also provide iGOT 2.0 with the configurability to be the digital backbone for learning, and enable development of other innovative solutions.
