“Knowledge.” • “Abilities” refers to the power or capacity to perform an activity or task. For example, having the ability to use a variety of laboratory instruments [5], or the ability to plan and organize. • “Skills” are the capabilities or proficiencies developed through training or hands-on experience. Skills are the practical application of theoretical knowledge. Someone can take a course on investing in financial futures, and therefore has knowledge of it. But getting experience in trading these instruments adds skills [6]. • “Knowledge” statements refer to an organized body of information usually of a factual or procedural nature which, if applied, makes adequate performance on the job possible
