But what actually is skills recognition?

Skills recognition is a means of analysing and measuring workforce skills. It can tell you what standards your staff should meet for any particular task and give you the tools to assess whether they are meeting those standards.

You may sometimes hear it referred to as 'recognition of prior learning' or RPL. A more in-depth definition can be found at the what is recognition page.
