Platform Alignment & Integration:

• Enable integration of skills data across enterprise talent, learning, and performance applications.
• Align skills mappings to learning content, roles, and talent data across platforms (e.g., Workday, SAP SuccessFactors).
• Identify and resolve gaps in skills data consistency across talent & learning.

Governance & Sustainability:

• Establish governance and processes to maintain the skills taxonomy, task mappings, and job architecture in partnership with Technology Product and Center of Excellence (CoE) teams.
• Document methods and define repeatable processes to map skills to learning content at scale.
• Document learnings from initial pilots to inform further scaling of the skills foundation.

• Technical design identified and documented for the enterprise skills foundation.
• Basic core tasks and skills taxonomy implemented across learning and talent applications.
• Learnings from pilots captured to enable further scaling.
• Defined and demonstrated method to map core skills to learning content in mass.
• Connected enterprise skills data layer across talent, learning, and workforce planning.
• Basic core task-to-skill and job-to-skill mappings established to support future capabilities such as career pathing, workforce planning, and talent marketplace.
