Team insights from the personalized skill analysis

If you're on a team plan with advanced analytics, personalized skill analysis gives you insight into gaps within your team and allows you to:

• Create individual learning plans for individuals on your plan through the use of channels.
• Understand the strengths and gaps on your team.
• Focus individual learning on specific topics within a skill.
• Help learners on your team discover new concepts to skill up on.

Getting your personalized skill analysis

In order to populate a personalized skill analysis, complete the following:

1. Take a skill assessment.
2. Score in the 20th percentile or higher (a 101+ Skill IQ).

Once both of these steps are complete, your personalized skill analysis is ready for you. If you receive a Novice skill level, don't worry—you can retake the assessment immediately with the do-over. If you've already used it, wait 21 days and take the assessment again to see if you have improved.
