Competency Assessment & Analytics
Evidence-based insights to build, manage, and optimize workforce capability
Centranum’s Competency Assessment & Analytics module enables organizations to evaluate workforce capability with precision and depth. Go beyond skills matrices and annual reviews—assess demonstrated competencies, uncover workforce gaps in real time, and drive evidence-based development at scale.
Assessment doesn’t exist in isolation. Centranum connects expectations, evaluation, and development into one continuous loop:
Define – establish clear role and competency requirements in the Library.
Assess – capture real evidence of performance and capability.
Analyze – visualize workforce strengths, gaps, and risks.
Act – feed insights directly into development plans, learning, and succession.

Why Competency Assessment & Analytics Matters
Without integrated assessment and analytics, your workforce data is fragmented — and decisions are made on guesswork. Centranum brings it all together:
-
Aligns roles, skills, learning, and career planning
-
Reduces risk of human error and compliance failure
-
Improves talent mobility and leadership readiness
FAQs
How are competencies assessed in the system?
