Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

There are two types of competencies: differentiating and threshold. Differentiating competencies are those that allow us to distinguish between average and superior performers. Threshold competencies are those that everyone needs to display to do the job at a minimally adequate standard. In other words, the difference is that threshold competencies are essential in order to perform a job, whereas differentiating competencies will distinguish the top performers from the rest.
