# My employee's competence

## Competence is often a topic during the development conversation. It is a platform to discuss the employee's existing skills, the essential competence required for their work tasks, and the competence they wish to develop or improve.

### Competence at the individual level

To assess the skills of individual employees, navigate to the "my employees" menu. This menu offers a detailed look at your departments and staff. Simply select the employee you are interested in and move to the "competence" tab for a detailed view of their abilities.

#### Register new competence

- Click «Add competence»
