Adding and Assigning a Career Blueprint

Career Blueprints allows you to create a Career Path template that contains a curated training curriculum that can be later applied to one or more employees at once.

Under the Career Blueprints tab, you will see the list of Career Blueprints currently available, with the ability to search by Career Blueprint Name.

Each Career Blueprint is named in “Initial Position --> Projected Position” format, with the Initial Position being the starting role of that learning journey, and Project Position its destination/target.

Adding a New Career Blueprint

Step 1: In order to add a new Career Blueprint, select the Career Blueprint tab under the Training & Development module, and click Add New Career Blueprint.

Step 2: Click Add New Career Blueprint

Note: From here, you will be directed to the Position Comparison tab with the Labor Market Intelligence module. 

Step 3: You will then have the option to either enter or look up an Initial Position for the Career Blueprint by leveraging the Position field.

Note: If no icon appears, you leverage a Labor Market Position. If an icon does appear next to an Initial Position you have typed in, here's what they represent below:

Step 4: Once you have selected the desired Initial Position, you will be directed to the bottom of the screen, where Similar Positions will be presented. 

Note: If you want to leverage a role already defined within your Enterprise Structure, manually enter it within the Projected Position search bar below. 

Step 5: To select a Projected Position, click on the box next to the position or click on the position title. In this example, I've selected the Project Position of Account Executive.

Step 6: Once selected, you will be brought to the bottom of the screen to review the Shared Skills, Skills to Train and Top Relevant Training.

In the example below, we compare the Initial Position to the Projected Position defined within your Enterprise Structure. 

• Skills Match: This represents the percentage of how close of a match the two roles are based on their common skills. 
  
  
• Shared Skills: Skills both roles have in common.
  
  
• Skills to Train: Where upskilling would be required to become a stronger match for the Projected Position
  
  Top Relevant Training: Based on the courses available within your Course Catalog, these courses are recommended based on how well they can cover the Skills to Train. 
  
  
• Download to Excel: Downloads all of the information below into a spreadsheet.

Step 7: Once you're ready to proceed, select the blue Build Career Blueprint button at the bottom of the page. From here, you will be taken to the Add Training page.

Note: If the positions are not added under your Enterprise Structure, you may receive a message like the one below.

Step 8: SkyHive lists relevant training opportunities for your chosen Career Blueprint.

1. You can sort by Skills Match, Training Provider, Maximum Price, Duration, Location, Course Type, and Language based on the training opportunities.
2. Search Course allows you manually search for courses from your Course Catalog that were not presented. (Example: Mandatory courses)
3. Once you have selected courses, you can check off the order in which they should be completed while also having the opportunity to re-order them. 
4. Course Details such as level, price, covered skills and additional skills will be presented. (Note: You can click on the course title to view more details or visit the external link)
5. Adding a course will cover the Skills to Train to the far right side. 
6. The total price will be calculated based on the courses added.
7. Skills to Train represent the gaps between the initial and projected positions. (Note: Top Skills are determined based on how often it is demanded within the labor market. You can click on the skill for more detail.

As training opportunities are added, the skills being covered by the training will be highlighted in green to show that they have been appropriately covered in this Career Path.

Before selecting Start Career Path, there's also an option to rearrange the order in which the courses are taken by clicking and dragging to reorder. 

Selecting the "Training should be completed in order" will present the courses in your chosen order.

Step 9: Once completed, select Save, and the new Career Blueprint will be added under the Training & Development Module.
