Create a Capability Model with Targets

When creating or editing a capability model, administrators can now enable and define target proficiency levels for capabilities in a model. The target proficiency level represents the proficiency level that is required for the capability model. Administrators may define target proficiency levels for all users in the organization or for specific organizational units (OUs).

The proficiency levels that are available when setting proficiency targets are configured in Capability Preferences > Proficiency Levels.

To create a Capability Model, go to Admin > Tools > Core Functions > Capabilities > Capability Models Library. Then, select the Create button.

To edit a Capability Model, go to Admin > Tools > Core Functions > Capabilities > Capability Models Library. Then, select the Edit link for the appropriate Capability Model.

Enable Capability Targets

When creating a capability model, capability targets are disabled by default. To enable capability targets for the competency model, enable the Define Capability Targets toggle.

Set Capability Targets for All Users

To set the same capability targets for all users who are included in the capability model, select All Users in the Set capability targets for field.

When this option is selected, a single set of sliders are available with one slider for each capability. Select the target proficiency level for each capability. The selected targets are applied to all users in the capability model.

Set Capability Targets for Specific OUs

To set different capability targets for each organizational unit associated with the capability model, select Specific OUs in the Set capability targets for field.

When this option is selected, each organizational unit associated with the capability model will have a distinct set of sliders to set specific targets for each organizational unit. This method could be used to set a model for an entire department or team with different proficiency levels for different roles within that department or team. Similarly, this method could be used to set a model for a job type but require different proficiency levels for Junior or Senior titles.
