Create a skill scale

Skill scales enable you to define the criteria by which a skill can be measured. There is a skill scale set up in the system by default called Skill scale with three values; Competent, Competent with supervision, and Not competent.

To create a new skill scale follow these steps:

1. Go to Quick-access menu > Skills.

2. Scroll to the bottom of the manage skills page.

3. Click the Add a new skill scale button.

4. Complete the skill scale settings.

5. Click Save changes.

Your new skill scale is now added and you are able to set the default value and the proficient value.

The last scale value entered during set up is the default value which displays on a learner’s record of learning (Totara Learn only).
