Behavioural anchors

LevelBehaviour at this level
N1 Guided Drafts a programme for one work instruction using a template and submits it to the trainer.
works under supervision and follows instruction · routine, one variable at a time · own task
N3 Proficient Designs a training of several sessions with clear objectives and assessment moments and delivers it to a group personally.
sets own approach and seeks input proactively · several variables, some ambiguity · own team or process
N5 Leading Determines the training model of the organisation, chooses didactic principles and aligns programmes with strategic workforce questions.
sets the standard and the policy · strategic, under high uncertainty · organisation, value chain or profession

N2 and N4 are deliberately not anchored. Raters place them between the anchors, following the O*NET convention.
