Web development skills audit
Posted: Wed May 19, 2010 3:20 am
Hello all,
I have recently started a new job as head of web development at a communications agency. This agency is rapidly moving to the web from traditional forms of media such as magazines. This means that athough we have a small team with excellent web skills we also have a team of designers with little exposure to the web.
I have been asked to conduct a web skills audit throughout the company to assess what skills and experience are hidden away (ideally they want to keep existing staff members)
I was wondering whether anyone had any experience of running such an audit/assessment - how they did it and any lesson/tips they learnt?
My plan is to setup a questionnaire and speak to each staff member indiviudally, firstly assessing any skills and skill levels e.g. rate yourself between 1-5 in HTML/CSS/Photoshop/flash etc... and then identifying areas where they are keen to learn in
But I would welcome any experiences and opinions that you may have
Thanks in advance
