Manage skills, knowledge and resume of your employees
Odoo Skills Management is the app that tracks every employee's skills, certifications, languages, education, and prior experience. Hiring managers staffing a project see who has the skills needed; HR planning training programs sees the skills gaps; succession planning sees who is ready for the next role. The same employee record carries the skill ratings, the certifications, the languages, and the development plan from one place.
Professional services firms staffing project teams, consultancies matching consultants to engagements, agencies assigning the right designer to a brief, and any business where the right person for the work matters more than the next available person uses it. You can test Odoo Skills Management free on the Odoo trial; pricing kicks in only if you install more than one Odoo app.

Setup starts on the Skill Type and Skill Level configuration. A skill type defines a category (Programming Languages, Foreign Languages, Soft Skills, Software Tools) with its own list of skills inside the category and its own list of levels (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert, or any custom scale you define). The level structure is configurable per skill type, so a language skill might use the CEFR scale (A1 to C2) while a programming skill might use Junior to Senior to Principal.
From there, each employee record carries a Resume tab with several sections: Skills (the rated skills per type), Experience (prior employers and roles), Education (schools and degrees), Certifications (the certificates the employee holds with optional expiry dates), and Languages (with proficiency rating). Employees can edit their own resume from their profile through self-service, or HR can update it on their behalf.
When a manager needs to staff a project (a custom development job needing senior Python skills, a client engagement needing fluent French and consulting experience, a presentation needing senior soft skills), the search across the employee directory filters by skill and level. The list shows every employee meeting the criteria, with their current availability from Time Off, their current workload from Project, and their location. With Odoo Appraisals installed, the appraisal cycle can carry a skill rating update so the resume stays current as the employee grows.

Odoo Skills Management is built into Odoo Employees as the Resume tab on every employee record. Odoo Appraisals reads and writes skill ratings during the appraisal cycle, so the resume stays current as the employee grows. Odoo Recruitment uses the same skill taxonomy on candidate records, so a candidate's skills entered during hiring carry forward to the employee resume on their start date. Odoo Project staffing reads the skill data to suggest the right employees for a project's required skill set. Odoo Time Off provides the availability that pairs with skill search (is the senior Python developer available next month, or are they on vacation). Odoo Knowledge can host the training content that closes a skill gap.
