Competence selection questionaire

This is a static view of the form used to gather data from experts about competences and skills they feel familiar with. This selection was meant to simplify the evaluation process. Please, note that this is a static view for evaluators and data is not collected or stored in any database. Nonetheless the form is still functional and you may select competences. The selection is then stored in your browser local storage area and it will be used in the evaluation form.
