Skills Gap Analysis Tool

This free skills gap analysis tool helps you understand which skills are the most important for a specific role, what your current capabilities are, and which training can close the gaps. It’s designed for professionals, workforce training providers, RTOs, and HR and L&D teams who want a practical, skills-first view of training gaps.

What is a Skills Gap Analysis Tool?

A skills gap analysis tool helps you compare the skills a role requires with the skills a person currently has. The “gap” is the difference between current capabilities and what’s needed for high performance, safety, and compliance.

Traditionally, skills gap analysis has been done with spreadsheets, manual skills matrices, and workshops. A digital skills gap analysis tool automates that process by:

01

Mapping a job role to its core technical and soft skills

02

Assessing current skills or self-reported proficiency

03

Highlighting gaps at the individual or role level

04

Feeding directly into training, qualification and certification plans

Know Who’s Competent. Before It Matters.

Cloud Assess replaces outdated Excel matrices with a live AI-powered skills grid. See every gap, every expiry and every role requirement across your entire workforce, in real time.
