In order to accomplish this, they cultivate their skill developing and enhancing new and existing digital media workflows, managing digital assets, and creating and manipulating these assets' metadata. They commit to the successful implementation of these new workflows by reliably managing both project resources and people.
They maximize the impact of their professional practice by soliciting regular input from stakeholders both internal and external to their institutional setting. They articulate and document the standards and practices that address these needs by creating policies, professional recommendations, and reports, which requires that they maintain current and and expert knowledge of standards and best practices for metadata and data management in their respective sectors.

Digital stewards are qualified to manage, preserve, and provide access to various new and/or challenging forms of media. They may also engage in, among other things: coding and scripting; digitization; hardware and software implementation; public outreach; and special media format management and migration.

By analyzing the project descriptions of the National Digital Stewardship Residencies, the authors enumerated the competency areas that define digital stewardship across a broad swath of applications. By surveying the residents responsible for successfully completing these residencies, they were also able to highlight fundamental competency areas that therefore belong in any profile of an effective digital steward.
\section{Implications and Future Work}
While the majority of competencies (sub-codes) surveyed for this study were definitively fundamental (had a mode $\geq$ 4) or specialized (had a mode of $\leq$ 2), there were thirteen that could not be as conclusively categorized. Of these, there were five that had a mode of 3, meaning the majority of the participants labeled these as "Somewhat important." These are: \textit{Hardware/software implementation}, \textit{Written output}, \textit{Workshops and trainings}, \textit{Teaching materials/toolkits}, and \textit{Literature review}. Seven sub-codes had multiple modes, showing disagreement among the participants as to the relevance of the skill for successfully completing their digital stewardship work. These are: \textit{Format migration/transcoding}, \textit{Coding/scripting}, \textit{Qualitative data analysis}, \textit{Public outreach}, \textit{Repository management}, \textit{Metadata documentation}, and \textit{Scholarly output}. The authors refrained from assigning these sub-codes into either the "Fundamental" or the "Specialized" tiers. The authors included them in this study's resulting competency statement as examples of further and increasingly specialized areas of work for which digital stewards are qualified, however, determining the place that these specific thirteen sub-codes hold in the overall profile of competencies for digital stewards presents an opportunity for future research.

It is important to note that this study's qualitative analysis was based on descriptions of projects, all of which were inherently time-limited and some of which were deliberately narrow in focus. While it was beyond the scope of this study, the diversity of project types among NDSR cohorts may also have affected the results. The specificity of certain projects, coupled with the fact that they were all designed to be accomplished in a relatively short time-frame, may have impacted our results to some degree--perhaps enough so to merit a new study that is based on a different set of data. However, the 90\% affirmation among this study's survey respondents implies that these competencies extend to digital stewardship positions beyond NDSR. The authors encourage using a similarly triangulated methodology to analyze competency areas found among permanent position descriptions and their incumbents. In particular, a follow-up study of those who have completed National Digital Stewardship Residencies and are now in permanent digital stewardship positions could do so while counterbalancing any possible bias of this study towards competencies that apply disproportionately to short-term appointments.
