Capabilities Analytics helps you identify common strengths and capability gaps across your workforce. It compares employees' capabilities with the requirements of their current jobs, helping you understand where your workforce is meeting current needs and where development may be required.

Understand strengths and gaps
A strength indicates that an employee meets or exceeds the requirement for a capability on their current job. A gap indicates that the employee does not currently meet the required level for that capability. Because strengths and gaps are based on current-job requirements, the same capability can be a strength for one employee and a gap for another.
Skills and competencies are tracked separately. The summary statistics count strengths and gaps across employees. If the same skill or competency is a strength or gap for multiple employees, each employee is counted separately.
Skill strengths
Skill strengths are instances where employees meet or exceed the skill level required for their current job.
Skill gaps
Skill gaps are instances where employees do not meet the skill level required for their current job.
Competency strengths
Competency strengths are instances where employees meet or exceed the competency level required for their current job.
Competency gaps
Competency gaps are instances where employees do not meet the competency level required for their current job.
View your top strengths
The Top 5 strengths section identifies the capabilities that most commonly appear as strengths across active users.
For each capability, you can see the number of active users for whom it is identified as a strength. Use this information to identify capabilities where your organization has particularly strong workforce coverage.
View your top gaps
The Top 5 gaps section identifies the capabilities that most commonly appear as gaps across active users.
For each capability, you can see the number of active users for whom it is identified as a gap. Capabilities that appear here may represent broader development needs, particularly when the same gap affects employees across multiple jobs or areas of your organization.
View strengths and gaps over time
The strengths and gaps chart shows how the number of strengths and gaps changes over time.
Use the available time filter to change the period displayed.
Looking at these trends alongside your current top strengths and gaps can help you determine whether workforce capability coverage is improving or whether particular gaps are becoming more common.
