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.
