System and method for modeling endorsement of skills of an individual in a skills map

A system for endorsing skills of an individual in a skills map, the system comprising:

• a processor in communication with computing devices over a telecommunication network;
• the processor comprising a skills map and user assessment module, configured to generate a graphical user interface displaying a skills map including a collection of skills associated with an individual mapping out sets of skills wherein the collection of skills becomes a skills map for the individual, the skills map of the graphical user interface comprising a group of skill cards configured in descriptive bundles, the skill cards comprising information about a skill and how the skill relates to the individual;
• the skills map and user assessment module displays an initial a skill stage for each skill in the collection of skills of the skills map as part of the graphical interface, the skill stage indicating a level of mastery the individual has obtained in each skill, wherein the skills map and user assessment module maintain a skill assessment progression that provides an objective skill progression for achieving different skill stages or levels of mastery of a skill for each skill included in a skills framework, providing a structured evaluation system for observable behaviors of individuals rather than subjective criteria of performance, wherein an artifacts module captures and stores artifacts of qualifications for performing each skill and the skill assessment progression is derived by identifying skills for an individual and identifying different levels of mastery for each skill in the skills framework at which an individual is executing a skill;
• the skills map and user assessment module and a processor determining a skill weight for each received skill stage for each skill in the collection of skills, wherein the skill weight is a predetermined value multiplier based on the skill stage;
• the skills map and user assessment module identifying one or more skill values assigned to each skill in the collection of skills, wherein each of the one or more skill values is associated with a value multiplier;
• wherein the skills map and user assessment module receives, from a computing device over the telecommunication network via the graphical user interface, at least one endorsement request for a skill stage modification to a skill in the collection of skills from the individual;
• wherein the skills map and user assessment module selects from a plurality of data sources in the form of individuals of an organization at least one endorser to review the at least one endorsement request, wherein the at least one endorsement request is placed in an endorsement request queue for the at least one endorser and the at least one endorsement request is prioritized in the endorsement request queue based on an endorser selection algorithm that determines a level of risk of endorsing the at least one endorsement request and comprises weighting the endorsement request queue to prioritize skill claims and skill goal submissions that are impactful to the organization;
• wherein the skills map and user assessment module provides via the graphical user interface a display to the at least one endorser the at least one endorsement request, the skills map corresponding to the at least one endorsement request, instructions for reviewing the at least one endorsement request, and a survey feedback tool for replying to available endorsement requests with one of an endorsement, a negative endorsement, or a skip for the at least one endorsement request;
• wherein the skills map and user assessment module receives, from the at least one endorser from a computing device over the telecommunication network via the graphical user interface, one of an endorsement, a negative endorsement, or a skip for the at least one endorsement request;
• wherein the skills map and user assessment module calculates total skill weights for the individual by summing the weighted skill weight for each skill in the collection of skills, the skills map and user assessment module storing, organizing, and managing skill stage assessments, wherein skill stages, skill stage assessments and associated skill values are created and modified in a database and then re-evaluated and updated based on data received from the at least one endorser;
• and
• wherein the skills map and user assessment module provides via the graphical user interface a display of the updated skills map as part of the graphical user interface.
