Acorn vs. SkillPanel

Acorn is the skills and development platform that closes the gap between what your people need to be able to do, what they can do today, and what is working to close it. Every role gets a standard, drawn from a framework of thousands of capabilities and proficiency levels. Your people capture the work they do against that standard, and the assessment is the checkpoint where a manager confirms what that work demonstrates. Development plans turn the gaps into action, and learning builds the skill.

SkillPanel is a skills intelligence platform that provides a clear and accurate picture of every skill within your organization. By combining powerful talent insights with real-time analytics, SkillPanel allows leaders to understand where expertise is strong, where capabilities need to grow, and how to align people with the company’s most important priorities. At the heart of SkillPanel is a dynamic skills map. Built from a rich ontology of thousands of skills and enriched by data from hundreds of thousands of real users. This map is not static.
