KOMPA

The KOMPA-project aims at constructing knowledge to support the development and implementation of tailor-made activities to increase the competency amongst HR-employees. Through a project design involving workshops, interviews and a survey, the project will:(1) identify gaps in the competency of the HR- profession regarding AI-based technologies used in HR-work, and; (2) draft recommendations for how the competency of HR-professionals can be developed. This way, the project will contribute to an increased ability within the HR-profession when it comes to working with AI-based technology, which supports their chances of staying relevant in their organisations and at the labour market, while also increasing the potential for innovation and sustainable growth.

Through the KOMPA project, the project's actors will together deepen the understanding of the future development around which specific competencies will be in demand by HR professionals, and what is therefore required of the profession in the future labor market. By accurately identifying these skill needs, we can ensure that future efforts are relevant and effective in preparing individuals for the challenges described above.
