The skill audit is the effective framework to recognise what skills a individual possess
and at what level of expertise. This will give me an opportunity to identify the new methods or
approach to improve and enhance areas of the weaknesses. In the workplace the skill audit will
help me to develop the skill base that will help in improving my existing skills and more easily I
will be able to meet my daily work and career goals. This is also beneficial for an employer in
arranging the employee training and development session and also through this I will feel more
confident, engaged and productive workforce (Sung and Hwang, 2018) . The skill audit of my
