From a French site
Potentiel.....this is not Potential per se , I don't know what the translation is but the other is as above!
Il s'agit d'un pronostic porté sur un individu à partir des ressources (connaissances, savoir-faire et aptitudes) dont il dispose objectivement ainsi que des expériences (présentant des similitudes avec la situation professionnelle visée) qu'il a su gérer dans sa vie professionnelle.
