Basic Application and Skilled Application competencies. The Intermediate level assumes the participant has the Foundation skills in that discipline from a combination of Foundation-level courses and on-the-job experience. Awareness competencies may be quickly reviewed in the course, but are not rigorously taught.  
PPM-Petroleum Project Management
FD-Formation Damage
    
MWC-Managing Wellsite Operations
PDS-Practical Drilling Skills
               
Courses providing Basic Application (along with Awareness) competencies and normally intended as the starting point for one that plans to be a practitioner in that discipline. The Foundation level is also used as cross-training courses for those that desire a deeper understanding of fundamentals than can be obtained in a Basic course.
