I think D is the right answer! Merit pay grid isn't really a competency issue.

Developing the merit pay grid sounds familiar, but I can't recall if it's a key issue or more of a result of the system.

I think we had a practice question about measuring competencies, and it seemed really important, so I would lean towards D being the answer.

I remember we discussed how identifying competencies is crucial for performance, so I think that one is definitely a key issue.

Developing the merit pay grid? Really? That seems like a pretty crucial part of a competency-based pay system to me. I'm not sure about this one, to be honest. I might have to guess on this question.

Okay, let's see. Identifying competencies, measuring achievement, and providing learning opportunities all seem like essential components of a competency-based pay system. That leaves "developing the merit pay grid" as the option that's not a key issue. I'll go with that.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. Developing the merit pay grid seems like it could be a key issue, but I'm not totally confident. I'll have to think it through carefully.

This question seems pretty straightforward. I think the key is to focus on the "NOT a key issue" part and eliminate the options that are clearly important for competency-based pay systems.

The real key issue is deciding whether to give out bonuses in the form of gift cards or just cold, hard cash. I mean, who doesn't love a good 'Employee of the Month' t-shirt?

Devising methods to measure achievement of each competency? Now that's a real head-scratcher. I'd rather measure the height of a cloud than figure that one out.

I disagree. I believe the answer is C) providing learning opportunities. Without learning opportunities, employees may not be able to develop the necessary competencies.
