Add skills to a user profile

We’re currently activating skills on a per-platform basis. If you’re a platform admin and would like to use them, contact your Client Success Partner (CSP).

Configure who can add skills to user profiles

Platform admins can choose which role can add skills to the profile of a user.

1. In the left sidebar, click on the platform group.
2. On the top right of the main section, click Settings.
3. In the left column, click Skills.
4. Under Who can add skills to learner’s profiles, select Admins, Managers or Learners.
   • If you select Admins, group admins will be able to add skills to the profile of members of their group.
   • If you select Managers, managers will be able to add skills to the profile of their managees.
   • If you select Learners, any user will be able to add skills to their own profile.

Add skills to your own profile

If the option Learners is selected in the platform group settings, any user can add a skill to their own profile (related to their current job or not).

The list of available skills is defined by admins.

1. At the top right, click on your profile picture → Skills.
2. At the top right of the list, click Add skill.
3. Click on a category.
4. Click on a skill.
5. At the bottom right, click ADD SKILL.
6. Optionally, select a mastery level.
7. At the bottom right, click ASSESS if you’ve chosen a mastery level, or click LATER.

You can reset the list of your skills by deleting all the skills in your profile. This will recreate the onboarding situation in Create your first skill, and pull the list of skills from your current job.

If you have at least one unassessed skill in your profile at the end of the day, you will receive an email notification.
