Enrich Your Skills Library

The Skills Library Enrichment agent leverages the power of Oracle AI to help you enrich your skills library for your business needs and provides you the flexibility of curating the skills suggested by AI.

When this agent is run, Oracle AI reads your existing skills library, understands your organization’s skills and qualifications requirements, and suggests new skills based on an analysis of these requirements. Each skill suggestion is assigned a confidence score based on the relevancy of the skill to your organization.

When configuring this agent, these are the parameters you need to specify:

• Specify the skill catalog to which you want to add the AI skill suggestions. Two predefined catalogs are available for your use: Oracle Dynamic Skills Seed Library with predefined skills and Skills Library, which is an empty catalog. To use your own custom-defined skill catalog, you must create an item catalog of type Skill and associate it with a Skills Center-subscribed content section.
• Set confidence score thresholds for automatic approval and for your review:
  • Confidence score threshold for automatic approval: Any skills that receive a score of this threshold or higher will be automatically added to the skill catalog of your choice without your review.
  • Confidence score threshold for your review: Any skill that receives a score above this threshold value, but below the auto-approval threshold value, will be added to your skill catalog in a ‘Needs Review’ status. Note that skills in this status are only visible to catalog administrators, giving them the ability to review these skills either in Microsoft Excel or from My Client Groups > Profiles > Item Catalogs. Any skills that are below the level of the ‘Needs Review’ threshold won’t get added to the skill catalog for any review.
• Choose to include synonyms for skill suggestions that are added to the target skill catalog.

  A synonym is another name that’s commonly used for a skill. It could be a short name, an abbreviation, or industry-specific jargon. For example, if there’s a skill called Python Scripting Framework, it could be known by other names such as Py scripting or just Python. Instead of creating separate skills for each of these in the skills catalog, a single skill will be added called Python Scripting and the synonyms will be appended to that skill.

To view this agent, an administrator needs to have the functional security privilege, WLF_MANAGE_BULK_SKILLS_LIBRARY_ENRICHMENT.

1. Configure and run this agent:
   1. Go to My Client Groups > Learning and Development. In the HCM agents section, click Skills Library Enrichment.
   2. From the Add menu, select Skills Library Enrichment.
   3. Enter a name and description for the agent.
   4. By default, the Include synonyms for skills checkbox is selected, which adds synonyms along with skill suggestions to the target skill catalog. It adds a maximum of 10 synonyms per skill.
   5. Specify the confidence score thresholds to filter skills for your review and for automatic approval. If you don’t specify any confidence score threshold, you’ll need to review all skill suggestions manually.
   6. From Default item catalog, select one of the predefined skill catalogs to which the skill suggestions must be added.
   7. Click Apply.
   8. Select the agent and click Run Agent.
   9. When the agent completes, click Download and Update. This downloads a Microsoft Excel workbook where skill suggestions are added by Oracle AI.
2. Review the Microsoft Excel workbook and upload the skills to your skill catalog:
   Note: Before you can review the Excel workbook, you need to download and install the Desktop Integration Installer tool from Navigator > Tools.
   1. Review the skills that you want to add or remove, and change the approval status in the Curation Status column.
      Note: The synonyms aren’t available in the workbook. However, you can view them using the Item Catalogs application. You can add or remove synonyms using Item Catalogs or HCM Data Loader.
   2. (Optional) From the Item Catalog Name column, you can also choose a different skill catalog to add the skills to.
   3. On the Oracle Visual Builder tab in the Microsoft Excel plug-in, click Upload Changes.
3. Verify whether the skills are added to the skill catalog:
   1. On the My Client Groups > Profiles page, click Item Catalogs.
   2. From the Actions menu (displayed as three dots) next to your skill catalog, select View and Edit Content Items. You’ll see the list of skills that were automatically approved and manually approved.
      Note: You can also curate skills directly from this page. To do so, edit a skill and set it as ‘Approved’ or ‘Rejected’. Only ‘Approved’ skills are added to the skill catalog and available to users.
