Overview

Skills & Competencies (HR-13) is where you define the skills catalog for your organization — the clinical, regulatory, certification, technical, and soft skills that roles require. Open it from HR → Skills. The catalog is the foundation the rest of the module builds on: each skill can be assigned to employees at a proficiency level, required by a position, and rolled up into coverage and gap analysis. Defining the library first gives every proficiency record and requirement a consistent reference.

Skills library

The Skills Library lists every skill in your catalog with its code, category, and proficiency levels. Use Add Skill to define a new skill, or filter by category to review a specific group (for example, all regulatory requirements).

How skills are used

  • Proficiency tracking — assign a skill to an employee at a proficiency level (beginner, intermediate, advanced, expert) with a verification status.
  • Position requirements — mark skills as required for a position, with a minimum proficiency, so new hires inherit a clear competency target.
  • Gap analysis — coverage of required skills is rolled up across the organization to surface the skills your teams are lacking.

The screenshot above is generated automatically from the local end-to-end test lane (tests/e2e/hr/hr-13-skills-docs-shots.spec.ts, run via npm run docs:shots) against synthetic seed data. That spec also runs an auto-heal gate — it fails on any console error, page error, or HTTP ≥ 400 while driving the surface — so the image reflects a clean, real render and is checked by the screenshot drift gate.
