Welcome

Welcome to The RSE Competencies Toolkit, a community resource to support RSEs (Research Software Engineers) in tracking and managing their professional development. It is currently in the early stages of development and we welcome contributions and feedback.

Note that, while we've focussed on RSE during the early stages of development, this tool can be used for any roles. We plan to extend this to other research roles and welcome contributions and collaboration from anyone working in research, broadly defined.

Please join our Slack Channel to connect and discuss your ideas or suggestions with other members of the group.
