Self Administration Standards

The CfA has developed Self Administration Standards that are aimed at the more than 10 million workers in the United Kingdom in professional, managerial, small business and other business related occupations. These workers are not full-time business administrators, but need Business & Administration skills to carry out their own job role competently. These Self Administration Standards will set the benchmark for employees’ skills in all sectors.

All employers, as well as their staff, will benefit from the use of these Self Administration Standards, as they can be used for the following purposes:

To support recruitment and selection

To improve induction training

To measure performance

To improve in-house training

To develop individuals

To support career progression

To improve appraisal processes

 

The 2005 Business & Administration standards are designed for administrators and are too detailed and specific to provide key performance indicators for this extensive workforce. Therefore, the CfA has worked in partnership with employers, key stakeholders and sector skills councils to develop these standards.

The Self Administration Standards are approved and are available to download here. If you would like more information about these standards, please contact Anna Lemmon on 020 7091 9632 .
