Calculating Your Skills Gap: A New Framework

2019 Talent Conference & Exposition
Learn a simple framework for calculating your skills gap and how you can use that knowledge to close skills gaps from within.

The future of learning is already here and includes automation and new technology. While most of us struggle to keep up, our workers are on to the next gadget. How can companies keep up, let alone make sure their employees remain relevant and ahead? The most forward-thinking companies are proactive in adapting to the changes and focusing on skills development for every employee. Using the Skills Quotient, you can understand and analyze the skills your employees have versus what they will need for the future. Successful companies are using the Skills Quotient to integrate skills and learning innovation into their company’s overall business strategy as a key competitive advantage.

Learning Objectives:

  • Outline the latest trends impacting learning and development teams and the workforce.
  • Get suggestions for using data and the Skills Quotient framework to understand employees' current skills.
