Assign Skill Proficiency and Interest Levels to a Labor Resource

The proficiency level for a labor resource lets you rate the skill of the resource. You can change skill proficiency and interest level settings at any time.

The following are the basic proficiency levels:

• Beginner at the bottom of the scale
• Expert at the top
• Advanced in the middle.

You can further refine the rating by identifying sublevels within the level. For example, a resource with a proficiency level of 3 - Beginner has more expertise than one with a level of 1 - Beginner.

Interest rating works the same way: CA Clarity PPM provides basic interest levels, with Low at the bottom, High at the top, and Medium in the middle. At each level, you can select a sublevel. For example, a resource with an interest level of 7 - Medium has a greater interest in performing a skill compared to one with an interest level of 4 - Medium.

Follow these steps:

1. With the resource open, click Skills.

   The skills page appears.

2. Select a proficiency level, interest, and weighting value for each skill.
3. Click Save.
