Answers
We’ve put together some commonly asked questions, but if you need to know anything else please get in touch!
How long can I access the dashboard for?
12 months’ access to the dashboard is included with every purchase. This period starts from the date that the purchase of assessments is made.
If more assessments are purchased then the annual access to the dashboard is extended for 12 months from the date of this new purchase.
Can I customise and build my own assessments?
Yes. You can create and customise your own assessments, though this will require some development time from our team
How can assessments be customised?
Assessments can be tailored to your organisation’s structure, language and skills framework. We can adapt the questions, scoring, reporting outputs and user journeys so the assessment reflects the roles, teams and development goals that matter to your business.
What is an adaptive assessment?
Adaptive assessments are when the questions change depending on the previous answer. This is used to understand the depth of knowledge of a subject or skill.
Can an existing manual assessment be automated?
Yes. If you already use a paper-based, spreadsheet-based or manual assessment process, it can be digitised and automated. This helps reduce administration, improve consistency, speed up completion and make results easier to analyse and report.
What job titles does SkillsAssess use?
SkillsAssess is based on role content, and a user can either select an existing role or type in the title of their current role or a role they aspire to. The AI will then research multiple data points to understand role content. For our corporate clients we can add their existing job descriptions to the tool.
What if my desired job role is not on the list?
No problem. Our AI can research and create a custom competency framework for your specified role, then generate a tailored assessment for it.
How many assessments can my team use?
Each plan includes a pre-determined number of assessments and is payable in advance. Assessments can only be taken once and any unused assessments expire after 12 months.
Clients can ‘top up’ their assessments by purchasing a new batch and annual access to the dashboard will be renewed for 12 months from the date of this new purchase.
Is the assessment mobile-friendly?
Yes. All assessments are fully optimised for mobile devices.
How can users access their assessments?
Users can complete assessments on a mobile phone, tablet, laptop or desktop computer. This gives people the flexibility to take part wherever they are working, while keeping the experience simple and accessible across common devices.
How can I assess my employees who are visually impaired?
SkillsAssess has built in screen readers and voice activation so it can be used by a wider audience such as Blind, Dyslexic and Visually impaired individuals. Equally it can be used by any individual who would prefer to listen and speak their answers?
Can I use the assessments in other languages?
SkillsAssess is available in multiple languages to allow our clients to assess their employees in the same way no matter what country they are based in.
Are the assessment results saved?
Yes all results are saved for you in the dashboard, which you can access at any time.
How does SkillsAssess help prevent cheating?
SkillsAssess includes anti-cheating features such as copy-and-paste restrictions and proctoring. Proctoring can monitor signs that a participant may be moving away from the assessment, such as looking at another browser tab or using a phone. If this happens, the participant can receive a warning and evidence can be sent to an administrator for review.
Are the results represented graphically?
Yes. Assessment results are presented visually through intuitive, easy-to-understand charts and graphs.
How can results be exported?
Each individual participant will automatically receive their skills report via email. Administrators will review all assessment results and reports can be exported to PDF and Excel so they can be shared with stakeholders, stored for records or used for further analysis. This makes it easier to review individual progress, compare teams and identify wider skills trends.
Can users track their progress?
Yes. Each user has a profile where they and the administrator can review previous assessments, see progress over time and understand how their skills are developing. This supports ongoing learning conversations and helps individuals take ownership of their development.
How can we report on skills gaps across our organisation?
SkillsAssess allows your administrators to create reports of skills and gaps across individuals, by role, by department, by company and across the whole group, as well as being able to create skills heat maps.
Can there be more than 1 administrator?
Yes! You can assign multiple administrators to manage your SkillsAssess account
Does SkillsAssess offer different access levels?
Yes. SkillsAssess allows organisations to set up multiple access levels so the right people can see the right information. Users can access only their own assessments, while managers or administrators can be given wider access depending on the organisation’s structure. We will discuss your requirements with you and agree how many access levels are needed.
Can I export the assessment results to PDF?
At the moment, The Skills Gap Analysis and Course Recommendations can be exported as PDF reports.
Is white-labelling available?
Yes. The platform can be white labelled so assessments reflect your organisation’s branding, including your logo, colours and preferred wording. This creates a familiar experience for users and helps the assessment feel like part of your existing learning or development offer.
Can the platform integrate with other systems?
Yes. Integration options can be discussed based on your existing systems, data requirements and workflow. Seamlessly integrate with your current HRIS, LMS or ATS allowing assessments to link to a personnel file, application or training courses. This may help reduce duplication, streamline reporting and support a smoother experience across your wider learning, HR or business systems.
Can I point the assessment takers to my own company courses?
Yes. You can link your own courses or learning resources to the assessment outcomes.
Can SkillsAssess be used for recruitment?
Yes, SkillsAssess can assist with the whole employee life cycle and is especially useful in the recruitment process. It will allow your organisation to send assessments specific to your job roles to candidates to ensure they have the skills their CVs say they have. Hiring Managers can then make informed decisions on candidates’ suitability and what additional training they may need to be fully competent in their role.
Is multi-factor authentication available?
Yes. Multi-factor authentication can be activated to add an extra layer of account security. This helps protect user access and supports organisations that need stronger security controls for assessment data.
Can I add my own training?
SkillsAssess is training agnostic so each client has the choice of linking to an existing Learning Management System, adding their own course descriptions into the tool, or using our sister company’s elearning courses.
Do I have to buy courses or can I decide later?
There is no obligation to purchase courses after your team has completed their assessments. Courses are purchased separately as and when you require.
