Through skills mapping and calibration, the NCWF helps to identify and resolve skill deficiencies; as a framework of core competencies for cybersecurity jobs, the NCWF helps employers to write job descriptions understood by applicants. We first review the NCWF, and then explain how it may enable mapping between jobs and qualifications. We also discuss the effects of job mapping on organizations and candidates, and its long-term benefits.
