Create a skill

  • Updated

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).

Platform admins can create skills, and link them to jobs. A skill is a specific ability, tool, or area of expertise that a user can declare they have.

Create a skill

  1. At the top right, click grid.svgSkills.
  2. In the middle section, next to a library, click either:
    • plus.svg Add  Quick add to create 1 skill.
    • plus.svg Add  Create multiple skills to create multiple skills at once.

Each skill must be associated with at least one qualifier, which can be used by admins to set expected values for a job and by other users to assess their skill.

By default, newly created skills are associated with the Main qualifier. You can create, add, or remove qualifiers from a skill.

Add a qualifier to a skill

  1. At the top right, click grid.svgSkills.
  2. In the middle section, click on a skill.
  3. In the right section, under Qualifiers, click Add a qualifier.
  4. Click in the empty field that appears under Add a qualifier, and select a qualifier.

You can add multiple qualifiers to a skill.

Remove a qualifier from a skill

  1. At the top right, click grid.svgSkills.
  2. In the middle section, click on a skill.
  3. In the right section, in the Qualifiers section, hover over the qualifier and click Remove.

Create a library of skills

A library of skills is a collection or catalog of skills that are grouped together based on a particular theme, industry, or domain. You can create a library to organize and structure your skills.

  1. At the top right, click grid.svgSkills.
  2. In the middle section, on the right of My libraries, click plus.svg Add.
  3. In Libraries, enter the name of the library.
  4. Optionally, enter a description for the library.
  5. In Category, select a category for the library.
  6. At the bottom right, click Create.
