The Reference and Adult Services Division of the American Library
Association published a few years ago an Occasional Paper (#17)
titled "Electronic Resources Skills: An Assessment and Development Log
for Reference Staff" that might serve you as a template.  
Mind you, it is quite old and only covers information retrieval -
CD-ROMS, online databases, etc and the reference interview.  
It is formatted as a series of checklists.  The booklet is 16 pages
long.  
Again, it will definitely not answer all your needs, but it can
provide some direction.
