Skills Comparator is a powerful web application designed to help engineering and manufacturing employers and individuals uncover transferable skills that are valuable across various jobs and industries.
Unlike technical or task-based abilities, these skills —such as teamwork, communication, and adaptability — are often hidden but essential for success. By highlighting these broader competencies, the tool supports informed decisions in recruitment, upskilling, and reskilling, making it easier to adapt to changing workforce needs.
