Training Capabilities - Content Skills Tagging

Content Skills Tagging allows administrators to leverage Cornerstone's AI to have their learning catalog auto-tagged with skills from the Cornerstone Skills Graph, leverage Reporting 2.0 to review tagged skills, update the tagging in bulk via Edge Import, or directly from the Course Console. This is accomplished via a new Content Skills Tagging tab on the Capabilities Preferences page.

Content Skills Tagging can be enabled via self-activation in Capabilities Preferences. See Capabilities Preferences - Content Skills Tagging.

Enabling Content Skills Tagging will cause the following features to also appear for system administrators to support Content Skills Tagging:

  • LO Capabilities load in Edge Import which can be used by administrators to easily add or reject skills that were tagged to each training.
  • Training Capabilities fields in Reporting 2.0 which can be used to review skills that were tagged to training in the Course Catalog.
  • Administrators can add and edit skills directly from Course Console.

Course Catalog - Update

Grants ability to manage and edit training items listed in the Course Catalog and also grants access to the Course Console, where training can also be managed and edited. This permission also grants access to the Popular Requests and Highest Rated widgets on the Learning Admin Console (in conjunction with the Learning Admin Console - View permission). This permission also allows administrators to reversion online courses via the Course Console page. This permission also allows administrators to access an Edit Training option for training items included as objectives in Development plans.

This permission can be constrained by OU, User's OU, Training Type, Training Item, Provider, ILT Provider, User's ILT Provider, User, User Self and Subordinates, and User's LO Availability. This is an administrator permission.

Note: Adding an OU constraint and a provider constraint to this permission results in an "AND" statement.

Once enabled, Content Skills Tagging auto-tags the following training types by using their title, description, keywords, and subjects to detect relevant skills:

  • Online courses
  • Online content
  • External content
  • Materials
  • Videos
  • Curricula
  • Events
  • Tests

Full-portal content skills tagging is triggered when:

  • An administrator enables Content Skills Tagging on the enablement page
  • Cornerstone makes an update to its skills-detection model

The auto-tagging process always preserves skills that were tagged or rejected by an administrator. After full-portal content skills tagging occurs, Content Skills Tagging will continuously tag additional individual trainings which get added to the portal, and when updates are made to individual training that affect the fields that impact skills detection.

Accessing Skills from Course Console

The Capabilities (Skills) field appears on the Course Console when Content Skills Tagging is enabled in the portal. Review auto-tagged skills and correct skills that were missed or mis-tagged by editing skills on a Learning Object (LO) directly from the Course Console. Click Edit to open the Edit Capabilities (Skills) flyout where you can edit skills for the LO and check suggested skills.

The Edit Capabilities (Skills) flyout displays the following:

  • Add Skills - Search for an existing skill or create a custom skill.
  • Added Skills - This section shows the skills associated with the LO.
  • Suggested Skills - This section displays the skills suggested by AI-powered skills detection algorithm.
  • Rejected Skills - This section displays the rejected skills from an LO. The rejected skills can be added again.

Tagging skills to trainings improves the discoverability of learning content. Feedback from interactions with skills within the flyout (such as adding or rejecting skills) improves the AI-powered skills detection algorithm.
