The Core Competencies for the Direct Service Workforce is a resource that informs direct service delivery. It describes best practices in community-based supports. The core competency set is not intended to impose requirements for direct service workers upon entry to the workforce. The purpose of the core competency set is to guide the development of training for direct service workers. It is also intended to serve as the foundation for a competency model in this industry. Upon completion of the Survey on Core Competencies for the Direct Service Workforce, the resource will be released with a web-based toolkit. Effective direct service workforce training tools and activities (such as performance evaluation tools and recruitment, hiring, and selection activities) will be developed based on the set. Implementation of the core competency set will lead to improved quality of training to direct service workers. The mission is to promote a high quality of life for people who receive services and their families. A current version of the core competency set (Version 3.0) is available to the public on the DSW Resource Center Website (dswresourcecenter.org). This survey is focused on employees who provide direct services to older adults and people with disabilities, including intellectual and developmental disabilities, physical disabilities, mental health, and substance use disorders. The purpose of this survey is to evaluate the competencies and skills that are needed by all community-based direct service workers. This includes workers within each sector of long-term services and supports: aging, behavioral health (mental health and substance use), intellectual and developmental disabilities, and physical disabilities. The survey will collect data from a variety of sectors: direct service workers, front line supervisors and managers, agency administrators and directors, individuals with disabilities and their families, self-advocates and guardians.
