Create a skill

This feature requires the Skills solution. For more information, contact your Customer Success Partner (CSP).

Platform admins can create skills and link them to a user, a course, or a path.

This article covers skill creation from the web interface. You can also import skills in bulk or with the API.

Create a skill

Creating a skill in a published skill library will make that skill immediately visible to users. If you want to keep it visible to platform admins only, create it in a skill library in draft mode.

1. At the top of the homepage, click Skills.
2. At the top, click the Skill libraries tab.
3. On the left, click on a skill library.
4. In the main section, on the top right of the Skills section, click Add skill.
5. Enter the name of the skill.
6. On the right of the new skill, click Create and add.

You can then adjust the qualifiers.

Create a subskill

You can create skills beneath existing skills. Note, however, that users can only assess themselves on skills with no subskills.

1. At the top of the homepage, click Skills.
2. At the top, click the Skill libraries tab.
3. Expand a skill library, and click on a skill.
4. In the main section, on the top right of the Subskills section, click Add skill.
5. Enter the name of the skill.
6. On the right of the new skill, click Create and add.

You can then adjust the qualifiers.
