Support for the implementation of the Employment and Expertise Plan (GPEC) within the Central Bank of the Congo (DRC)

The Central Bank of the Congo (BCC) has taken on a process of implementing an Employment and Expertise Plan (GPEC), and requested that the Forhom Institute accompany it in this task.

Within this framework, a first training activity on the topic of “Crafting core competency and skills reference guides” took place in June 2013 at the Forhom Institute in La Rochelle, France. This training course provided training to 4 executives from the BCC on how to craft core competency and skills reference guides and helped define the main lines for the implementation of the GPEC approach within the BCC.

The BCC wishes to extend this activity through technical assistance which will allow for:

• the drawing up of the core competency and skills reference guides to be finalised;
• the GPEC approach to be implemented within the BCC by adapting all of its HR processes.

The BCC has therefore requested the Forhom Institute to provide its support in implementing the GPEC.

Technical assistance is based on the principle of joint development of the tools and procedures necessary to the implementation of the GPEC within the BCC.

To achieve this, the proposed support is based on a project team which includes fifteen executives from the BCC. The Consultant's approach rests on an alternation of:

• missions of technical assistance to the project team within the BCC, with the objective of transferring skills and developing the tools and procedures to be implemented;
• training sessions for the actors involved in the implementation of the approach; and
• remote support time to accompany the project team in their implementation work.

The Forhom Institute will mobilise two international consultants for a total length of 18 months. (7 staff-months of work in total)
