What you can do

Skills inventory analytics helps you:

• See the skill inventory and Skill IQ proficiencies within your team
• Ensure skill development is focused on the right subjects
• Spot opportunities to guide your team's development
• See which skills need to be measured and the number of users who have not assessed a skill

Web report

To get started:

1. Click Analytics in the Leader view of the navigation menu.
2. Click the Skills inventory tab.

Overview

1. The overview shows overall metrics regarding subjects your users have engaged with. The data fields include:
   • Engaged users
   • Assessed users
   • Reassessed users
   • Skill ups
   • Avg skill growth
2. You can customize the web and CSV reports with the date range filter.
3. You can customize the web and CSV reports with the teams filter. To include unassigned users, make sure all teams are deselected.
4. You can customize the web and CSV reports with the license filter, including options for removed and free account users. If your plan includes multiple license types, this filter allows you to select which to include in the reports.
5. You can download a CSV report of your analytics data (discussed below).

Visualizations

You'll find two visualizations below the overview section.

Popular subjects

Popular subjects surfaces the trending subjects within your team. This is based on engagement aggregated across video course views, project tasks, interactive course challenges, and assessment completion. Use this to see what your team is focused on, and help them grow by guiding them to the skills needed for current or upcoming projects.

Skill IQ distribution by subject

Skill IQ distribution by subject shows the number of users within five proficiency ranges for a particular subject. The Skill IQ scale of 0–300 is broken into five quintiles:

• Novice: 0–19th percentiles
• Emerging: 20th–39th percentiles
• Average: 40th–59th percentiles
• Above average: 60th–79th percentiles
• Expert: 80th and higher percentiles

This data is aggregated at a subject level, meaning multiple skill assessments could roll up to one subject. For example, 214 users may have taken six different assessments that are categorized within the “Python” subject. The score shown is the average of all of those assessments.

Subjects table

Users with both basic and advanced analytics have access to the Subjects table. Users with advanced analytics can also create and view Custom skill groups, discussed below.

You can filter the Subjects table by entering a keyword or phrase. This filter only affects the subjects displayed in the table.

The Subjects table shows engagement and assessments data, according to the filters you have set. You can click any of the labels to sort by that field, and click again to toggle between ascending and descending. The data fields include:

• Subject
• Content interactions
• Engaged users
• Engaged users assessed
• Engaged users not assessed
• Skill level composition

Favorites

The Favorite column allows you to choose one or more subjects to appear at the top of the table, regardless of the sorting criteria for the table at large. The star icon toggles the favorite status of the subject.

If you mark more than one subject as a favorite, your group of favorites will sort the same as the rest of the table—for example, alphabetically by subject, ascending by engaged users, etc.—followed by the remaining subjects in the table.

Skills will remember your favorites until you change them, making it easy to find them next time.

Custom skill groups

Users with advanced analytics can create and view Custom skill groups, containing the skills and subjects most important to your organization and teams. To view existing custom skill groups, click the Custom tab above the Subjects table.

To add a new skill group:

1. Click Create custom group.
2. Give the group a unique name.
3. Search for and select the skills and/or subjects to include in your custom group.
4. Click Create group when you’re finished.

To edit, duplicate, or delete a custom skill group:

1. Click the Options menu (three dots) next to the custom skill group.
2. Click Edit, Duplicate, or Delete.
3. Follow the prompts according to your selection.

CSV reports

View more details about your skills inventory analytics with the CSV report download. To download the CSVs, click the download icon next to the filters.

Users with basic analytics have access to the Summary CSV report, described below.

Users with advanced analytics have access to both the Summary CSV and the Detail CSV reports. Clicking the download icon will give you a zip file containing both reports.

The files will download to your system’s Downloads folder. Depending on the size of your plan, this may take some time to process. Once downloaded, open the files in a spreadsheet program.

• The Detail CSV includes one record per user, per assessment.
• The Summary CSV includes one record per subject.

Data fields for the two reports include:
