Competence is the ability of an individual to do a job properly.

A competency is a set of defined behaviors that provide a structured guide enabling the identification, evaluation and development of the behaviors in individual employees.

The term "competence" first appeared in an article authored by R.W.

White in 1959 as a concept for performance motivation.

In 1970, Craig C.

Lundberg defined the concept in "Planning the Executive Development Program".

The term gained traction when in 1973, David McClelland wrote a seminal paper entitled, "Testing for Competence Rather Than for Intelligence".

It has since been popularized by Richard Boyatzis and many others, such as T.F.

Gilbert (1978) who used the concept in relationship to performance improvement.

Its use varies widely, which leads to considerable misunderstanding.

Mechanical engineering is the discipline that applies the principles of engineering, physics, and materials science for the design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems.

It is the branch of engineering that involves the design, production, and operation of machinery.

It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering disciplines.

Electrical engineering is a field of engineering that generally deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism.

This field first became an identifiable occupation in the later half of the 19th century after commercialization of the electric telegraph, the telephone, and electric power distribution and use.

Subsequently, broadcasting and recording media made electronics part of daily life.

The invention of the transistor, and later the integrated circuit, brought down the cost of electronics to the point they can be used in almost any household object.

Infrastructure refers to the fundamental facilities and systems serving a country, city, or area, including the services and facilities necessary for its economy to function.

It typically characterises technical structures such as roads, bridges, tunnels, water supply, sewers, electrical grids, telecommunications, and so forth, and can be defined as "the physical components of interrelated systems providing commodities and services essential to enable, sustain, or enhance societal living conditions.".

Industry is the production of goods or related services within an economy.

The major source of revenue of a group or company is the indicator of its relevant industry.

When a large group has multiple sources of revenue generation, it is considered to be working in different industries.

Manufacturing industry became a key sector of production and labour in European and North American countries during the Industrial Revolution, upsetting previous mercantile and feudal economies.

This came through many successive rapid advances in technology, such as the production of steel and coal.
