What it is

A recommendation system maps each employee's role, goals and skill gaps to your internal and external learning catalogue, generating personalised quarterly learning paths.

Data you need

Skills taxonomy, course catalogue with metadata, HRIS.

Required systems

  • data warehouse

Why it works

  • Co-build the skill taxonomy with line managers
  • Quarterly review with L&D team to refresh catalogue

How this goes wrong

  • Catalogue too small, same items recommended to everyone
  • Skill taxonomy that doesn't match how managers think

When NOT to do this

Skip if your learning catalogue has fewer than 100 items, too few to recommend from.
