# Create Contractor Skillsets

## A new Skillset can be created at the division or company level. A Skillset is a curriculum item that facilitates curriculum management by grouping training items together.

The minimum permission needed to perform this task is CSM Division Admin.

### **How to Create a Skillset:**

1. Select **CSM \>** **Curriculum \> Skillsets** \> (Organization Level, if shown) from the system menu.
2. If you can access multiple divisions or companies, select the division or company where you want to create the Skillset.
3. Select the **New** button.
4. Enter the Skillset **Title** and Skillset **Code**.
5. If you are at the company level and creating a Skillset for a division, select the **Division** from the drop-down list.
6. Enter the optional fields of Description, Key Words, and Notes, if desired.
7. Select the **Save** button. The new Skillset is added to the selected company and division.
8. Add Training Items to the Skillset.

Follow the naming conventions for Skillsets in the division where you are creating the Skillset.

### **How to Add Training Items to a Skillset:**

Training items can be added to a Skillset at the division or company level. Before you can add a training item to a Skillset, the Skillset must exist. Create a Skillset if one does not already exist. When you add a training item to a Skillset that is already in a learner's curriculum, that training item is immediately added to the learner's assignments.

The minimum permission needed to perform this task is **CSM Division Admin.**
