Progression Indicators

The three-bucket rubric for this sub-competency. Behavioral anchors are shown when available.

Not Demonstrated

No evidence yet. Either the behavior has not been performed in a captured context, or the captured evidence does not yet meet the rubric.

Novice anchor: Reluctant to delegate; does the task themselves rather than asking UAP; uncertain about scope of practice for delegation.
Developing

Matches the AACN Developing descriptor for this sub-competency. Caps at Developing in solo activation mode for P3 (Hands) sub-comps without preceptor observation.

Advanced beginner anchor: Delegates appropriate tasks to team members based on roles and competency; provides clear, specific instructions; follows up on delegated tasks.
Developed

Matches the AACN Developed descriptor. For P3 sub-comps this requires a preceptor or peer observation to triangulate the self-report.

Competent anchor: Manages delegation across full shift with multiple UAP; adjusts based on observed performance; addresses unsafe delegation directly.

Deeper analysis coming. All 434 sub-competency pages are scaffolded against the AACN definition, the Five Practices mapping, and the Progression Indicator rubric. 5 carry the full narrative this version (listed on the framework index). The remaining long-form copy is being authored alongside the behavioral anchors and will land in the next framework version.

Currently writing the long-form for: 2.8c, 2.8d, 2.8b, 3.1c, 10.2a.
