Introduction

The COPA model has been designed to make sure that there is promotion of the comprehensive and systematic methods that can be used to determine the competencies of a certain system. This model and the related sub skills that are pretty much a part of the model are being designed to show and demonstrate that how can any achievement be completed when there is conscious effort from the people to remove the ambiguity that prevails at the moment. There is also relation with how subjectivity and inconsistency can be used meet the needs and expectations of the issues that are encountered in contemporary practice.
