DUE NEXT WEEK! Final Call for Comments on NICE Framework Task Statements

Refactored Task Statements

The NICE Program Office has proposed updates to the NICE Workforce Framework for Cybersecurity (NICE Framework) Task statements to follow the principles set forth in the Task, Knowledge, Skill (TKS) Statements Authoring Guide for Workforce Frameworks. Updates include improvements for:

  • Consistency: Statements follow a common structure that begins with the activity to be executed and focus on the work to be done (not the knowledge or skills needed to do that work)
  • Clarity: Statements are clearly stated
  • Redundancy: Statements are unique and do not duplicate or unnecessarily overlap with others
  • Compound statements: Statements do not include more than one task

We want to hear from you!

Comments on the proposed updates to Task statements are due by January 29, 2024. All comments should be submitted by email to NICEFramework [at] nist.gov (NICEFramework[at]nist[dot]gov) ​​​.​​
