Welcome to the CMDS community
CMDS is designed to provide a comprehensive competency-based approach to ensure employees and contractors understand their specific job requirements and provide a credible record of achieved knowledge and skills.
Competencies are developed by workers in industry to reflect the work they do within their facility. Because it is experienced workers who develop these competencies, it ensures they are relevant and acceptable to the workplace.
Currently, the system serves over 5,000 employees and contractors across Canada, in nearly 100 major energy companies – including several multinationals. The program has been accepted by several post-secondary institutions, with Certificate and Diploma development led by Lakeland College.
