Self-assessment scale: 1 to 5. 1 = Low competence and 5 = High competence. *Competency gaps are identified when the self-assessment of current competency is substantively lower than desired competency. If the gap between desired and current competencies is >1, then the gap is considered as substantive [18]. | |||||
