Our world is continuously undergoing changes, many of which we see most prominently in our workforce and organizations. How they operate, structure themselves, and how work is managed continues to evolve with technological and social developments. In response to this, skills are continuously evolving and changing as well \u2014 today we see required skills that didn\u2019t even exist a decade ago. As such, these skills are difficult to manage for companies, but perhaps more importantly, employees don\u2019t know which skills to build and focus on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Challenge: You\u2019re Only As Strong As Your Biggest Skill Gaps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We know employees want guidance. In fact,<a href=\"https:\/\/get.degreed.com\/how-the-workforce-learns-report-2019?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=cta&utm_campaign=HWL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"> in our most recent study<\/a>, 61% of workers said they wanted help aligning learning efforts to their skills gaps. And for years, companies have tried to offer guidance and structure through competency models, systems that were thought to clearly define the knowledge, skills, and behaviors required for every individual role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But while<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.prweb.com\/releases\/2017\/06\/prweb14421274.htm?utm_content=buffer52412&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer\" target=\"_blank\"> two-thirds<\/a> of organizations utilize workforce competencies, only <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.prweb.com\/releases\/2017\/06\/prweb14421274.htm?utm_content=buffer52412&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer\" target=\"_blank\">33%<\/a> of those organizations believe they are effective. With a workforce that changes this rapidly, a top-down approach will never be able to keep up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Organizations need a structure that can help their people build skills at the rate of change we\u2019re seeing across the workforce. By 2022, it is predicted that<a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/reports\/the-future-of-jobs-report-2018\"> 133 million new roles<\/a> will emerge within the workforce, largely focusing on the interaction between humans, machines, and algorithms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From technological advancements to unique job titles, the new world of work is progressive and fluid. In a recent<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gartner.com\/smarterwithgartner\/motivate-employees-to-reskill-for-the-digital-age\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Gartner survey<\/a>, 70% of respondents said they didn\u2019t feel they had mastered the skills their current jobs demanded, and 80% said they lacked the skills they needed for both their current and future roles. On a larger scale, companies are struggling to keep up with new required skills such as technology design and system analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/RJhQN7FiMCTnI_EmuJ6YYB7DjhpNaWdaWUCqVHhdKguAfohjtsyM8JRDe5GIpFIl3Vg3eGxDu1-loX5QjNQTe_lVaVIID-BvxEVXsA1yU7sBcdGWw2yofEI8dNT7JsJA_aE7LTxc\" alt=\"60% of workers said they want help aligning learning efforts to their skills gaps.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now we see a plethora of different tools trying to find an alternative for a competency model. HCM systems are trying to \u201cinfer\u201d the skills required for an organization\u2019s workforce from job applications or performance reviews, for example. There are new tools hitting the market constantly, claiming AI will do the job, and still we see clients spending significant resources on outsourcing this work to consultants and still the same struggle. The skills economy demands a creative tracking solution \u2014 one that isn\u2019t from the top down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cisco is a good example of what this alternative skills structure looks like in a large yet dynamic company. They recognized that their <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"competency model (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/degreed.com\/experience\/blog\/shift-from-competency-model-to-skills-5-steps\/\" target=\"_blank\">competency model<\/a> couldn\u2019t keep up with their growth, resulting in disparate job titles throughout the organization, despite role similarities. So they created a simpler solution. First,<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/degreed.com\/experience\/blog\/4-takeaways-from-ciscos-learning-strategy\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Cisco categorized about 3,000 unique job titles<\/a> by the skills they required. Then, they mapped those skills onto a more manageable group of 221 similar \u201crole profiles\u201d for all 75,000 of their people. The result is a simpler, more agile system that can grow with the modernization of work and their company. It also allows for a clearer for <a href=\"https:\/\/degreed.com\/experience\/blog\/how-internal-mobility-is-all-about-people\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"internal career (opens in a new tab)\">internal career<\/a> mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/9g5w5sJJM1y9-tyom2yN_bEnvxzbabIvEN0hXTVINTIt8HgzlDvxeaauizacwL_ZqjaxoA_wBEOx-thjK0RkBveJvaNtM0hBpw6aBhNASDueVGY2fbx8efX_J7Q97FUQOnwLdfZe\" alt=\"How Cisco solved their skills gaps.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While Cisco had the resources, data, and business directive to simplify this complex and time-consuming mapping problem, many companies are facing the same problem without the resources to solve it. Luckily, these are the problems that Degreed was born to solve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We know that skills are the foundational piece to a new system. We can link learning opportunities to skills, which can then link to roles. But let\u2019s start with the basics: What is a skill, anyway? Well, most businesses and industries have their own lexicon, as do providers of skill library solutions, such as Korn Ferry, HRSG, and IBM Watson Talent Frameworks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before businesses can effectively address their skills gap, they need to identify it \u2014 which is difficult to determine if not everyone is speaking the same language around skills. The first step to addressing a skills gap is identifying which skills are functionally the same and compiling those together by a common name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve found that our individual users like adding skills in creative or unique terms, but these additions don\u2019t tend to gain steam within the organization. Only 12% of all skills that are tagged in Degreed came from our<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/news-release\/2018\/10\/04\/1601218\/0\/en\/Degreed-Introduces-Skill-Review-to-Quickly-and-Reliably-Quantify-Any-Skill.html\" target=\"_blank\"> taxonomy<\/a> or a client administrator, which means 88% came directly from users in their preferred language. But it turns out that the standardized skill tags (the 12%) generate 80% of the \u201cactions\u201d we see \u2014 e.g. people following or actively seeking to develop them through individual learning plans and goals. Streamlining these crowdsourced skills into a common language creates a standardized structure. This then translates them into an actionable skills library around which administrators can use in crafting development plans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Solution: It All Starts With Your People<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So how can we help our clients simplify and standardize their existing skills? We\u2019ve spent the better part of the last year working with some of our most innovative clients to create a fresh new approach. This approach still relies on standardization but draws on a different source for this guidance: your people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of following a top-down competency model, we want to allow the workforce to help shape the company <a href=\"https:\/\/degreed.com\/experience\/blog\/skills-quotient-solution-ceos-biggest-problem\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"skills taxonomy (opens in a new tab)\">skills taxonomy<\/a>. This process can help surface evolving skills and allow businesses to study and understand their strengths and weaknesses. Then they can endorse certain skills and incorporate them into training tools to stay one step ahead of the curve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/wPU_71_z_RVknT1FXt_o-CkwF1xmgJhd0-lMdN_SzH_PzljLPdXkBw7v3CO6kEY7LNSHng9I-ZDxnwUPVsLUF8vioJP9Wb2l5D0w9bTLOvwS7w6Rw8F1zGCzYnxZ8Y0hzo-2lUyN\" alt=\"Competency models are outdated. Skills taxonomy can help you identify and shape your skills for tomorrow.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Administrators can use this data, consolidate it, and build it back into their skills structure to <a href=\"https:\/\/degreed.com\/experience\/blog\/reducing-inefficiencies-labor-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"ensure standardization (opens in a new tab)\">ensure standardization<\/a>. This generates a live, dynamic taxonomy that can build more responsive learning programs, guiding employees to help them identify and close their skills gaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why we\u2019re releasing an exciting new feature to help you get there. With Degreed\u2019s latest release, there is now an intuitive and editable skill list in the Skills tab. While only in Beta initially, it will be released to our full audience in the next few months. This means that we now offer the guidance our users want with the flexibility to use the lexicon of your unique businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, say your company has a specific skill of \u201cEngineering Excellence\u201d that is commonly used and well-defined by the business. Now you can add \u201cEngineering Excellence\u201d to the system, track it, and endorse it. Administrators can either edit them right in their Skills Tab or download their existing skills list to easily edit or load new ones straight into the system, as seen below.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/LinFes7r2IH6KC7z4JSv49TczAFNPruCEIyBnGmzHXuq-RnOGD0MA8S-Cri_B3ZrVu5Zqha48UYEASnt2tp5W85kVK3EgF6mKWF57Qts-ubMp_mYGcTTRjpfttwL6roSn6SCO9U0\" alt=\"Managing Skills in Degreed\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The best part is that skills can also be associated with roles, Pathways, and Plans in the system, so users can actively build skills within the same platform they\u2019re tracking their <a href=\"https:\/\/degreed.com\/experience\/blog\/skills-engine-ignites-internal-mobility\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"development (opens in a new tab)\">development<\/a>.
