Abstract

A system and method are provided to enable competency based device access. The ability for a user to use a particular device may require demonstration of a skill or competency. Access control can be provided for a device to limit user access and to configure the device based upon the user competencies to utilize or perform functions on the device. The competency of the user can be defined in a competency checklist used to determine the skill or certifications of a user maintained by a resource management system.
