Competencies you can see.

Skill profile, gap analysis and learning paths — as a clear surface on a proven competency framework.

Overview

Competencies — finally understandable.

The Skills building block makes competencies usable day-to-day: a skill profile for learners, gap analysis for managers, recommendations in the Explore feed. Underneath runs a proven competency framework — what you see is a friendly, clear surface.

Core features

What the Skills building block brings.

R2

Skill profile

Learners see their competencies, their progress and the next tier — one clear card per skill.

R2

Gap analysis

Managers compare 'should' and 'is' in the team. Gaps are presented as recommendations.

R2

Learning-path import

Learning plans appear as coherent paths — with progress and due dates.

R2

Explore recommendations

Courses matching the skill gap are highlighted in the Explore feed.

R2

Badges & evidence

A completed skill can automatically trigger a badge or certificate.

R2

Manager assignments

Managers assign skill targets, respecting the Orgchart structure.

How it works

From skill target to progress.

  1. Import framework

    Existing competency framework or newly modelled — both work.

  2. Set up skill profile

    For each user, the building block shows current and targeted competencies.

  3. Recommendations

    Gaps surface as matching courses in the Explore feed.

  4. Progress & evidence

    On completion, the skill is marked achieved automatically and a badge is issued.

For learners: clarity

Instead of 'competencies somewhere', a clear profile with progress rings and a next step.

For managers: overview

FAQ

Common questions.

Do I need an existing competency framework?

No — start small: 3–5 skills as a pilot. The building block scales along.

How do skills differ from badges?

Badges are evidence. Skills describe the learning state — the badge is optional, the skill is the structure.

Can I connect external competency frameworks?

Planned — R2 ships CSV import, later releases move toward CASE/IMS standards.
