Talent Ontology vs Skills Taxonomy
What’s the difference?
Talent Ontology
Talent ontologies provides 3D groupings of attributes that can define relationships between skills, roles, proficiency levels, and tools and technologies. They are much more than a competency framework model, which aligns skills to jobs and past experiences, and a skills taxonomy model, which only provides a list of titles and skills.
Skills Taxonomy
Traditional skills taxonomies are linear lists with simple hierarchies, i.e., titles and skills only. These can lead to messy frameworks with outdated and overlapping titles and skills. They are prone to becoming duplicative and there is no DEI consideration.
