An organisation needs to understand the skills, knowledge and abilities (or competencies) it currently has and those required to support its capabilities and strategic imperatives. A skills audit identifies the skills gap in the organization through a process of measuring, assessing and noting the current skills of all employees.
EOH Consulting carefully scrutinises the skills, knowledge and abilities (competencies) within your organisation, compares these with the competencies specifically required for your organisation and/or within your industry practice and consequently recommends a suitable training schedule to address the apparent skills and knowledge gap.
The outcome of the audit is a training needs analysis, which presents the following:
- An understanding of the skills gap.
- A targeted analysis of development needs.
- A listing of people who need development.
- Information that can be used for recruitment and selection.
- Information that can be used for dynamic succession planning.
