The civil engineering industry now faces with many problems such as poorly planned projects,
breach of the delivery date, erroneous budget estimation, uncontrolled system functionality changes, and
inappropriate documentation that all lead to the dissatisfaction of clients. One of the main concerns of civil
engineering industry is to develop the talent of its human resources, since the quality and innovation of its
products and services depend to a great extent on the knowledge, the ability and the talent that civil engineers
apply in the development process. A competency framework defines a set of knowledge, skills, and behaviors
that professionals must have to excel in their careers. A competency framework facilitates the identification
of training needs and guides the design of a professional development program. In this paper we propose a
competency framework for civil engineers, whose design is based on the activities and interactions that they
perform during the civil development process. Thus, competency framework for civil engineers defines a set
of knowledge, abilities and key behaviors, with special emphasis in the soft skills. The organization that adopts
this framework must define and integrate the specific competencies needed by for civil engineers to allow them
to fulfill their goals.
Key words: Civil engineer, human resources, key competency, , , ,
