Abstract
Documentation:	Used in the context of recruiting and staffing as a container of information related to matching knowledge, skills, abilities, and other resource deployment-related characteristics (including "competencies") offered by a candidate and/or demanded by a potential employer or customer. Definitions of qualifications: OED: qualification, n. A quality or accomplishment which qualifies or fits a person for a certain position or function; (now esp.) the completion of a course or training programme which confers the status of a recognized practitioner of a profession or activity. MIAP Common Data Definitions Version 1.0 (UK): A formal recognition of achievement or competence, accredited or otherwise, which can be internally or externally certificated by its awarding organisation. In the context of resumes, a "qualifications summary" is a paragraph or listing intended "showcase" a candidate's most compelling skills and experience. In this context, "qualifications summary" may be persuasive or self-marketing content versus a "formal recognition of achievement or competence" as the term "qualification" is defined by MIAP, above. In other words, use of term "qualifications" sometimes encompass both qualifications asserted or claimed as well as those that have been formally recognized by an "awarding organization."
