Mumbai — Jaro Education, a leader in online higher education and upskilling space, has recently introduced its cutting-edge AI-powered Skill Gap Calculator, a tool designed to revolutionize career counseling and help organizations reassess skill gaps in their workforce.
The AI-powered Skill Gap Calculator provides a comprehensive analysis of both soft and hard skills, generating a personalized career report for individuals across industries. It identifies areas where professionals need to improve, including soft skills like communication, leadership, and time management, as well as in-demand hard skills such as data science, product management, and analytics. This tool helps professionals stay ahead of the curve by aligning their skills with evolving industry trends and creating actionable plans for career progression.
“In a competitive job market, upskilling is key, and the Skill Gap Calculator is the compass professionals need,” said Ms. Ranjita Raman, CEO, Jaro Education. “It acts as a personalized guide for career development, helping users map out their growth paths with precision.”
Key Features of the AI-Powered Skill Gap Calculator:
- Comprehensive Skill Analysis: The tool evaluates soft and hard skills specific to each industry. Human Resources (HR), for example, highlights gaps in critical areas like attention to detail, compliance basics, and employee records management, providing users with detailed, actionable recommendations.
- Personalized Career Roadmap: Each learner receives a tailored report outlining their current skill set, areas for improvement, and specific learning recommendations. The personalized analysis enables learners to take focused steps toward career advancement by addressing the gaps most relevant to their roles.
- Cross-Industry Relevance: The Skill Gap Calculator is applicable across various industries, including finance, sales, and HR. For finance professionals, it identifies skill deficiencies in areas like financial reporting, analytical skills, and budgeting, while sales professionals can focus on enhancing skills like persuasion and CRM software proficiency.
- Organizational Benefits for HR Leaders and CHROs: Beyond individual assessments, the tool is a powerful resource for HR leaders and CHROs, enabling them to identify and address critical skill gaps within their organizations. By leveraging the Skill Gap Calculator, they can gain deep insights into the collective skill gaps within their organizations. This data allows leaders to design targeted upskilling initiatives, reassess workforce capabilities, and ensure that their teams are equipped to meet future challenges. In a time where talent development is critical to business success, this tool offers a clear roadmap for enhancing organizational productivity and resilience.
A History of Innovation in AI-Driven Solutions:
This is yet another major initiative by Jaro Education, building on its earlier success with the AI-powered ROI Upskilling Calculator. Launched to address one of the primary concerns of professionals pursuing executive education—understanding the return on investment (ROI) from upskilling efforts—this tool analyzes variables like current salary, targeted industry, and time required for upskilling. It provides a detailed forecast of the expected returns after completing an upskilling program, empowering learners to make informed decisions about their future.
Why This Matters in Today’s Job Market:
As industries undergo digital transformation, the ability to quickly identify and address skill gaps has become essential. The AI-powered Skill Gap Calculator empowers professionals to stay competitive by focusing on critical skills for career growth. For HR teams, it offers the capability to drive organization-wide learning and development strategies, ensuring teams are aligned with industry standards.
