Appendix C – Knowledge Requirements

Every position requires certain types of knowledge. For job analysis, “knowledge” refers to what an employee must know in order to perform the essential functions of a position. This includes the ability to recall underlying principles and theories, and the names of the parts, tools, resources, and forms required to perform a task. Knowledge may be acquired through formal education, training, personal experience, or job experience.

The questionnaire asks you to identify the knowledge areas required for this position. There is room to identify up to seven knowledge areas, however, many positions will not have that many. An Accountant, for example, might identify Accounting, Statistics, and Office PC Applications as his or her required knowledge areas. Please note that a separate question in the knowledge section asks you to list the specific software applications used in this position. You may choose knowledge areas from this list, or develop your own descriptions for the knowledge required for this position.
