What is The Purpose of a Skills Gap Analysis?
Many public sector organisations have reported skills gaps in the past year. Many of which have struggled to keep up with service demand because of it.
By taking the time to conduct a skills gap analysis, you can uncover gaps in your team or organisation and understand how to prioritise them to upskill your employees most effectively.
A skills gap analysis consultation is one of the most effective ways to address the skills gaps in your organisation. Speaking to a member of our experienced Accounts Management team will give you insight into the realm of training solutions available to suit your needs and craft the best plan to solve your gaps.
Read everything you need to know about a skills gap analysis, plus common mistakes those involved in learning and development make when conducting their own skills gap analysis and how you can avoid them all.
What Happens Before the Consultation?
The first step is to fill in our quick form to find out if you’re eligible for our free skills gap analysis consultation. Fill in the form and check your eligibility here.
If you’re eligible, a member of our Account Management team will be in contact with the skills gap analysis for you to fill out.
The skills gap analysis form will cover your organisation’s mission, objectives for the year, the training you currently run and the areas of training you want your organisation to focus on.
It will also cover four main types of public sector training: soft skills, compliance, specialised/technical and leadership and management.
Who Will Conduct Your Skills Gap Analysis Consultation?
We want to introduce you to our experienced Account Management team who manage everything from our skills gap consultation, and building training programs to the ongoing support our key accounts receive.
Meet Gemma
“Hi, I’m Gemma and I currently lead the Key Account Team. I’ve worked at Understanding ModernGov for 12 years now, too long some may say! When you have been here as long as I have, it’s hard not to have lasting relationships with people I speak with.”
Meet Chris
“Hi, I’m Chris. I’ve been part of Understanding ModernGov for almost seven years, working across Delegate Acquisition, then on our In-House training team and now the Key Accounts Team. I feel really lucky to work alongside public sector services, assisting them in maximising what they offer to the public.”
Meet Carol
“Hello all, I’m Carol and I have worked in various departments across the company in my 12 years since joining. I’ve been part of the Understanding ModernGov family now for over 9 years and it feels like home. In that time, I’ve also built lasting relationships with UK and overseas clients who continue to support our events.”

How Does Our Skills Gap Analysis Consultation Work?
After filling in the skills gap analysis form carefully created by our Account Management and Accounts Support Team, the date for your consultation will be set according to your availability.
During the consultation, you will have the opportunity to discuss your answers to the skills gap analysis with your dedicated Account Manager. You will have the opportunity to dive into job requirements, the current level of skills and knowledge of individual employees, and how these skill sets can be improved.
Your Account Manager is likely to ask more questions to ensure they have enough information and understand the needs of your organisation to give the best training plan recommendations possible.
After the consultation, you’ll receive a full report via email of what was discussed and a run-down of our training recommendations and potential solutions to suit your organisation’s training needs.
