TECHNIQUES FOR EXTRACTION AND VALUATION OF PROFICIENCIES FOR GAP DETECTION AND REMEDIATION

Gaps in proficiencies may be identified within an enterprise. Understanding gaps in the existing workforce may help inform training, hiring, and firing decisions to ensure successful completion of the upcoming projects and deadlines. Using a multi-level model for each proficiency that accounts for enterprise needs as well as hiring, retraining, and the like, a relationship between proficiencies, projects, and employees over time may be generated as a multi-dimensional temporal model. The temporal model may be simulated to forecast gaps in proficiencies of the employed workforce. Recommendations regarding retraining, hiring, and termination can be made to help users remedy the deficiencies. Additionally, the proficiencies most valuable to the enterprise may be determined using a catalog of proficiencies to cluster the proficiencies into proficiency clusters for each job or job category and the proficiencies scored. Employees and candidates may be scored using the clusters to inform hiring, firing, and retraining decisions.
