摘要：Education is enhanced as required with the demand and expectation of the society. The teacher or an educator has a major role to play as an active agent of social change (P.Trivedi, 2012). The teacher's contribution in imparting education and molding our future generation is significant. This calls for the need of an appropriate tool for assessing and selecting the right person for the job. Studies (Hayes et al.,1979) show that Competency mapping is one of the most accurate and contemporary means in identifying the job and behavioral competencies of an individual in an organization. This paper explores a development of the new tool for the performance assessment and the quality enhancement of the management institutions. A thorough literature review has been made regarding the various levels and components of competency assessment. Different sectors (R.Yuvaraj et al., 2011) has been studied where competency assessment model is used. And the paper finally arrives at a TAASK (Trait, Ability, Attitude Skill, Knowledge) based competence model for the assessment of faculty members in academia. TAASK plays an important role in teaching. Trait (Gordon Allport 1897-1967) describes personality and characteristic of an individual. Skill is the learned ability to bring out the predetermined result with maximum certainty, often with minimum outlay of time, energy or both (Guthrie 1952) and Ability shows the quality that possesses an individual for teaching profession. Attitude may be defined as the predisposition of tendency to react typically towards a given object situation or value. Knowledge (Peter F Drucker 1959) refers to information understanding or awareness gained from experience and education in work place. This model will help to identify the right person possessing all these competencies. The TAASK model is to be validated with suitable data in further scope of the research
