The OMCP Competency Standards define the competencies and skills required to qualify for employment and earn industry certification in online marketing. These documents are used by educators for course development and compliance with OMCP standards, and are also used by hiring managers to determine job readiness and performance measurement for existing staff and incoming candidates. The competencies are constantly checked and updated by digital marketing leaders and practitioners for relevance. The ratios used reflect those set in the most recent OMCP role delineation study.
