WELCOME TO THE FEDERAL COMPETENCY ASSESSMENT TOOL - MANAGEMENT (FCAT-M), a tool created to provide a strategic leadership competency analysis of the skill level of an agency's future and current leadership cadre.

Agencies can use the results of the assessments to support human capital strategies such as competency gap analyses, succession management, and developmental efforts.
