Assessing skills, skill needs, performance and capability

SFIA (Skills Framework for the Information Age) for Individuals

SFIA is used extensively in the assessment of existing capability, at both an individual and an organizational level. Assessment is a valuable initial diagnostic stage that feeds into subsequent analysis and development.

SFIA provides a powerful diagnostic tool to enable skills assessments to be made. Individuals can assess their current skills and experience, identify their goals, and use such assessments for planning their personal professional development journey by determining the skills and levels they want to achieve.
