How can you use the e-Competence Framework (e-CF) for your developement?

The e-CF e-Competence Framework is a description of technical IT skills, designed to achieve comparability between the qualities of IT professionals.

This enables you as a professional to see where where you stand. The e-CF is the first framework that covers the entire IT field and is internationally recognized.

At Capgemini, we believe in transparency and overview in the education landscape. Therefore, with our e-CF enabled curricula you can see which training or certification contributes te which e-CF competence and what courses you need to do to build your strength in a specific e-CF competence.

A complete overview of all e-CF competences you will find in this brochure. How to use these in combination with our learningplans, you can read below. You find the learningplan that fits your area of expertise, by selecting your field of expertise and choose "Learningplan" on the left.

How to use an e-CF learningplan?

All our courses are included in one or more core tasks, which is a task within the field of expertise in which you are working.

In a learningplan you see an overview of all core tasks that we recognize within your area of expertise. With these core tasks, you see a reference between brackets to the e-CF competence that fit with this core task. For example "Scrum Master (E2 D9)". this refers to the e-CF competences E2 and D9.

This way you can easily see, which training contributes to the developement of a specific e-CF competence.
