Skills Planner
Close the Skills Gap, Maximize Employability, Personalize Continuing Education
The career path no longer ends with graduation; in a rapidly evolving world, professionals need to constantly update their skills to stay competitive.
Skills Planner enables higher education institutions to guide their students and graduates in their professional development, offering personalized recommendations that respond directly to industry demands. This tool is essential not only to improve employability, but also to boost continuing education opportunities that connect graduates with their alma mater throughout their careers.
Skills Planner provides value to higher education institutions at two key moments, adapting to both students and graduates to maximize their preparation and relevance in the labor market.
Skills Planner analyses the skills acquired by students during their courses and compares them with the labour market requirements for the desired graduate profile. By identifying skills gaps, Skills Planner prescribes a specific curricular path for each student, recommending courses and adjustments to their academic plan that allow them to close those gaps. With this approach, students can improve their employability upon graduation, ensuring that their professional profile is aligned with market expectations and demands.
