Represents an individual element within a durable skills framework — either a skill statement or an organizational grouping that structures them.
Durable skills frameworks organize their content hierarchically, and each framework uses its own vocabulary for the levels (for example "Competency" and "Component Skill" in XQ Competencies, or "Subskill" and "Indicator" in Carnegie Skills Progressions). Use normalizedStatementType for a classification that is consistent across frameworks, and statementType to see the framework's own label.
These items are published outside the CASE Network, so they carry no CASE identifiers and are addressed by their Knowledge Graph identifier.
The unique identifier for this item in the Knowledge Graph system. This is a system-generated identifier that remains stable across data updates and can be used to reference this item in queries and relationships.

True if this item has at least one direct child via the "hasChild" relationship. Use this flag to decide whether to render an expand/collapse affordance and whether a follow-up call to /durable-skills/{identifier}/children will return results, avoiding requests that yield empty pages.
A short, human-readable code that identifies this item within its framework, reflecting its position in the hierarchy (e.g. "COL.1.1A.1", "FK.AC.1.a"). This is the code practitioners use to reference the skill in materials and planning tools.
A short label for this item. For progression levels this names the level reached (e.g. "Exploring", "Analyzing", "Integrating", "Extending"), which distinguishes sibling levels under the same parent. May be null for organizational groupings that carry no separate label.
The full text of the skill statement or organizational element, describing what a learner should know or be able to do. May be null for purely structural groupings.
The classification label used by the source framework for this item (e.g. "Competency", "Component Skill", "Progression Level", "Subskill", "Indicator"). This preserves the framework's own terminology, which differs between frameworks. Use normalizedStatementType for cross-framework comparisons.
A normalized classification describing the broad functional role of this item, standardized across frameworks regardless of each framework's own labels. Use this to separate skill statements from the groupings that organize them.
