Personnel aboard Deep Space 4 will, by necessity, possess a broad range of abilities and aptitudes. Personnel records list those aptitudes known, to facilitate selecting appropriate members to accomplish any needed tasks.

For simplicity, each of these abilities is graded on a 1-5 scale, with 5 representing the highest achievable proficiency, and 1 representing a basic level of training. In addition, each ability is noted as having a 'linked attribute', which is what basic characteristic usually comes into play when that skill is employed.
