New Skills Assessment
With this enhancement, a new skills assessment streamlines the skills assessment process, reducing clicks by 50% and reducing errors by removing unnecessary navigation steps.
The new skills assessment includes the following features:
- A new optimized layout is applied to simplify the rating process
- Previous ratings and targets are displayed to help the rater gauge progress
- Raters can rate one or multiple dimensions, such as enjoyment, proficiency, or interest, depending on the assessment configuration
- The assessment is available in the new Skills Profile, People Matrix, and Compare Skills page
- The assessment is part of the Skills Profile redesign aimed at providing a new unified experience

This functionality is automatically enabled for all organizations.
