As Businesses, employing the skills and service of our staff is usually one of our biggest costs. Yet, whilst we record their service carefully (time and attendance, leave entitlements, etc), we rarely record and monitor their skills (knowledge, experience, use of tooling or equipment, Behaviours, and or leadership) in the same measurable ways we do with other significant investments and assets.

This is because, until now, we have thought of skills as words (words on position descriptions, job ads, resumes, performance reviews, etc), and words are very difficult to quantify. For instance, we all know that ‘years of experience’ is no guarantee of broad or advanced skills, and that claims and interpretations of adjectives such as ‘Senior’ or ‘Experienced’ vary wildly.

In turn, it is these ‘skills as words’ that is fueling the inconsistencies, inefficiencies, and natural biases that are compromising the core people management functions of recruitment and resourcing, performance management, training and compliance, diversity and integrity, and enterprise capability planning.

Seera leverages industry best practice and internationally recognised Skills and Competency datasets to describe professional attributes of Knowledge, Experience, Use of Tooling and Equipment, Behaviour, and or Leadership, along with specific levels of proficiency or responsibility typically attained within each skill or competency.

It is by assessing against these standardised definitions that enables Seera to quantify your Skills as Data.

Our framework agnostic SeeraCloud and MySeera platforms amplify the benefits and agility of these frameworks and datasets by converting their static composition into powerful and dynamic, enterprise scale, webforms, databases, workflows, and analysis reports, all secured by Microsoft’s Azure cloud platform.
