    JPA, JPANs & Q's

    Anyone know how I can see what Q's are allocated to a JPAN/post on JPA? It's easy to see what your employees current competencies are, but how do you find what they should be? The only time I've seen the list to the post is when the AO gets raised.

    Anybody else see this tonight on BBC1?? I've only been half interested in TJ before, but I thought this was one of the best music documentaries I've seen for a while. Over the top with the botox though.:PDT_Xtremez_42:
