Summary:

This report acknowledges that some abilities needed for Federal jobs are inherently more difficult to learn than others. It contrasts employee perceptions of how difficult it is to learn certain job-relevant abilities with research findings about the actual trainability of these abilities. MSPB's goal is to help agencies use training resources more effectively. Employee selection can also be more effective when agencies target difficult-to-learn abilities to ensure that persons with those abilities are hired into the workforce.
