Organize and scope competencies and other objects.
A Competency Framework or simply Framework is a collection of competencies and relations between competencies in the framework and potentially between competencies in the framework and competencies in other frameworks. In practice, a Framework represents competencies related to a specific job, task, organization, career, knowledge domain, etc.

Skills, Knowledge, Abilities, etc.
Competencies include skills, knowledge, abilities, traits, and combinations thereof that are needed to perform a task or job. In CASS, competencies are identified and located using a globally unique ID. Competencies can be further described using titles, descriptions, levels, indicators (coming soon), roll-up rules, and relationships to other competencies.

Make claims of competence about individuals.
A claim of competence in CASS is called an Assertion. It states with some confidence that an individual has mastered a competency at a given level, provides evidence of such mastery, and records data such as the time of assertion and the party making the assertion.

Structure and relate competencies within a framework.
A relation specifies an relationship between two competencies. With it, one can express super-sub relationships through the 'narrows' relation, pre-requisite relationships through the 'requires' relation, equivalence, and many more.

Specify the performance levels of a competency.
When an individual's performance in a competency can be measured, a level specifies milestones that an individual can reach, creating fine-grained distinction between the proficient and the adept.

Encode inferential rules used to determine rollup.
When no direct evidence of an individual's competence is available, CASS uses assertion processing to estimate competence. Rollup Rules provide a means of encoding rules that govern when competence is warranted in the absence of direct evidence.
