What is Team Skills Planner?

Team Skills Planner is an AI feature in AWS Skill Builder that turns your organization’s business goal into a role-aligned training plan for your team. Instead of spending weeks on a manual learning needs analysis, you can state what your team needs to achieve, and Team Skills Planner identifies the roles, domains, and job tasks connected to that goal. You can optionally run a short baseline assessment to calibrate recommendations to your team’s current skill level, review recommended Digital and Classroom Training from the full AWS Training and Certification catalog, assign it to your team, and track progress toward the goal in the Team Skills Planner section of the Admin Workspace.

Note

Team Skills Planner is included with an AWS Skill Builder Team Subscription.

Who uses Team Skills Planner

Learning Administrators in your organization run Team Skills Planner, and all Learning Administrators authorized for your organization can view and contribute to the same goals, recommendations, assignments, and progress.

Team managers and team leads can’t run Team Skills Planner for their teams.

Features of Team Skills Planner

  • Goal-driven planning — Start from a business goal, described in chat or drawn from documents you upload, and receive a plan tailored to the roles and job tasks needed to achieve it.

  • Editable roles and job tasks — Review, add, or remove roles and job tasks before you run a baseline or generate recommendations.

  • Optional baseline assessment — Send a short, shareable skill check to your team. Learners don’t need a Skill Builder account to take it, and results are aggregated by role.

  • Digital Training and Classroom Training in one plan — Recommendations draw on the full AWS Training and Certification catalog, including Digital Training, immersive and hands-on experiences, and Classroom Training, both free and paid.

  • Self-paced or cohort delivery — Assign the plan for learners to complete on their own schedule, or move a team through it together.

  • Progress tracking and AI insights — Monitor progress by goal and role, with team-level charts and AI-powered insights.

  • Downloadable training recommendation — Download a PDF of the goal, roles, domains, selected job tasks, recommended training, and aggregate baseline results if you run a baseline. Share it with leaders and stakeholders who don’t use Team Skills Planner.
