General information

Below is a list of the essential skills determined by DFI that make up the competencies required in Jewish communal service to meet minimal standards of job performance. These competencies transcend any one particular area of Jewish communal service – they are portable and productive – and can help professionals understand work related expectations and achieve successful employment. While these core competencies form the basis for successful practice, the process of attaining them at the highest levels develops over time as professionals grow and mature in the work place.
