| Abstract | ||||
| This study aims to identify the professional competencies required of talent specialists in light of the knowledge economy requirements in addition to providing a proposed framework for these competencies. Utilizing a descriptive methodology, the research first delineates the requirements of the knowledge economy through an extensive review of literature. Subsequently, a comprehensive set of professional competencies is derived, encompassing personal, cognitive, skill-based, digital, communication and collaborative work, as well as follow-up and evaluation competencies. Survey data from 100 talent specialists across educational directorates and administrations in five governorates further informs the development of a proposed framework for these competencies. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to analyse the collected data. The analysis included calculating frequencies, percentages, and Pearson correlation coefficients to assess internal consistency reliability. Cronbach's Alpha coefficient was also calculated to examine reliability. Additionally, means, relative frequencies, and item rankings were computed to process the participants’ responses to the questionnaire designed to identify the professional competencies required for talent specialists in light of the knowledge economy requirements. In light of findings of the research, the framework was proposed. It outlines its philosophy, objectives, starting points, and content, offering a structured approach to preparing talent specialists for the evolving requirements of the knowledge economy. | ||||
