Skills are competency-based learning programs, where a person's training history and job performance can certify their professional knowledge and abilities. Skill Profiles define, as a matrix, one or more areas of expertise (Skill Areas) and the varying levels of competency within those areas (Skill Levels). Open the Skills page to see your achievements in each Skill Profile, your next training goals, and the accreditation requirements for each skill level.
The My Team dashboard now offers a Team Skills page, where managers can easily assess team compliance, view their employee's detailed accreditation status, and assign new training goals. The Skill Profile matrix will display not only the number of certified employees in each Skill Area, but also who has been assigned goals for each Skill Level. Action buttons make quick work of managing employee goals, course interests, and enrollments.

Skill Profile
The selected Skill Profile will display in table header, with Skill Areas listed as rows and Skill Levels designated by column. Cells are color coded to give managers a sense of team status and competencies at a glance. When at least one person in your team view has a certified Skill, the associated cell will display green and include an Achieved Accreditation Counter. White cells represent skill gaps.
Managers can click a Skill Area name to find the number of users who have a Goal Assignment at each level. By comparing these data points – Assigned and Achieved – they can identify not only certified skill gaps, but where to assign new goals as well.
- Achieved = Number of certified users
- Assigned = Number of assigned goals
- Available = Accreditation opportunities
If Minimum Training Requirements (MTR) are loaded into the portal, the matrix shows the number achieved of the total number required. For example, if the MTR is "3" and just one has been achieved, the matrix will display "1 of 3" in the box. If MTR is not being used in the portal or if it's not in place for all Skills, the Skills Matrix will display the only number of accreditations that have been achieved.
A legend at the bottom of each Skill Matrix indicates the meaning of the colors and symbols displayed.
Team Status Detail
Click a cell to expand Team Status Detail, where you can manage goal assignments or drill into an individual's certification to take course-level action. This feature shows the team broken into three groups:
- Achieved – People who have certified their skill
- Assigned – People who have been assigned a goal for the accreditation in view
- Not Assigned – All other users in filter criteria
By comparing these user lists, managers can keep a good pulse on who is actively working toward an accreditation, and which users may need new goals assigned. Use the buttons in Action column to add or remove assignments with a single click. Note that the "Achieved" user list does not offer goal management buttons.
