Assigning Skills

As an Academy Admin, you have the ability to assign skills to your academy's members. The skills you assign to your Academy Members will be marked as Required Skills for these users.

In the left navigation, make sure you are in the Team Workspace.

On this page, you can assign skills individually to specific users or use advanced assignment based on criteria.

Select Skills

In the first step, select the skill(s) you want to assign to your learners.

On the left-hand side, you can apply filters to narrow down the list of skills. Available filter options include Skill groups, Skill categories, and Skill types.

At the top of the page, you can use the search field to find a specific skill. You can also assign multiple skills at once by selecting the checkbox next to each skill.

The initial list displays 20 skills, and a Load more button appears at the bottom of the list.
 Click Next at the bottom of the page to proceed to the second step.

Select team members

In the second step, select the team members you want to assign the selected skills to.

By Person

To assign skills to individual users, click the + button next to each user you want to assign the skill to. You can also use the dropdown menus to filter users by Above Unit Type, Above Unit, Unit, or Job.

Notes:

  • If you selected only one skill in the first step, users who already have that skill assigned will appear greyed out with an Already assigned indicator and cannot be selected in the second step. 

  • If you selected multiple skills in the first step, users who already have some of those skills will still be selectable without any indicator. When assigning, any skills the user already has will be skipped.

By Criteria

Under the By Criteria tab, you can select multiple users based on their shared organizational structure. First, select the desired job, and then choose the Above Units and/or Units.

The Employees that match criteria field will display the number of users who meet the selected assignment criteria.

Once you’re done, click Assign.
