The document provides information about conducting a skills gap analysis to determine if an individual's skills match the requirements of their industry. It outlines a skills gap process where individuals highlight their skills in different colors to identify skills they are proficient in, have some knowledge of, love performing, and hate performing. The process helps identify skills that may require training to close any gaps between current abilities and industry demands. Contact information and helpful online resources are also provided.

Select 4 difference color highlighters
1. Highlight (1st color) all the skills you are
100% on. (No training ~ refresher ~ or a
skill that you’ve had some experience in)
2. Highlight (2nd color) all the skills you have
some knowledge of. These are the skills
that some skill training or refresher
training would bring you up to 100%

18. Skills Gap Process
3. Highlight (3rd Color) all the skills you “Love”
performing. These skills might be both in
the 100% or refresher skills area and might
already be highlighted.
4. Highlight (4th Color) all the skills you “Hate”
performing. These skills might be both in
the 100% or refresher skills area and might
