Competency-Based Training Intitiatives for Entry-Level Residence Life Professionals



Student Learning and Development



Supervision

 Strategies used to cultivate new knowledge,
skills, and abilities
 Description of onboarding strategies
 Roadblocks or challenges faced with
competency-based training
 Use of pre- or post-training assessment
The authors used predominantly ACPA and
NASPA competencies instead of ACUHO-I
competencies to gain an understanding of the
broader competencies higher education institutions are using to train entry-level campus
housing staff. ACPA and NASPA competencies are broader in nature than ACUHO-I competencies which would allow for staff to gain a

foundation of knowledge, skills, and abilities
that may benefit them in the future if they
decide to transition out of campus housing and
residence life. The ACUHO-I competencies
are specific and cater to only campus housing
staff. Selecting the ACPA and NASPA competencies allowed for staff to self-identify areas
not focused on during staff training and find
opportunities that could allow for learning and
growth in broader competency areas.

RESULTS
Figure 1 shows that student learning and development, crisis management, and supervision are
the competencies on which institutions train the
most whereas advising, evaluation, assessment,
and research are least trained competencies.
