Skills Profile - View Critical Skills
If you belong to an organizational unit (OU) with an associated capability model, a Critical skills page can be accessed from your Skills Profile.
The Critical skills page outlines your critical skills, predicted proficiency ratings, targets, and status for the proficiency target. The highest proficiency target and the corresponding status are displayed if you are aligned to multiple competency models with different proficiency targets for the same skills.
The color associated with the skill tag indicates the skill association. Green indicates developing, blue indicates declared, white indicates suggested, and gray indicates hidden.
Your predicted proficiency rating is an amalgamation of all declared ratings for you (Self, Manager, and Peers) and your skill level that can be inferred from your job history and job title.
You can perform actions on a single skill by selecting the options menu (three dots) to the right of the skill name. You can perform bulk actions on all critical skills by selecting the options menu (three dots) in the upper-right corner of the table.
Select the heartbeat icon 
to open the Critical Skills Progress Tracking flyout. This option is only available if enabled in Skills Profile Preferences. See Skills Profile - View Critical Skills Progress.
To access the Critical skills page, go to . Then, click the Skills tab. In the Critical skills widget, select the View critical skills link.
