Skills Profiling Tool

The OECD’s Skills Profiling Tool, available for free online, can be used by career guidance services and individuals to improve career decisions. The Tool assess three types of skills: occupation-specific skills; foundational skills (literacy, numeracy and digital skills); and a set of noncognitive skills using academically validated self-reported tests. The tool then provides an output on a personalised skill profile that allows users to benchmark their results against other users, as well as a list of suggested occupations that make use of these skills. The webpage provides additional information on how to interpret these results.
