Using the Competency People menu
Who is this article for?Administrators who want to learn how to use the People menu in Competency.
Administrator permissions are required.
The Competency People menu in Lucidity's platform serves as a central hub for managing and accessing individual user profiles within an organisation. This powerful feature allows administrators and authorised users to view, edit, and analyse competency-related information for team members, facilitating efficient workforce management and targeted skill development initiatives.
1. People menu
The People menu consists of the users in the organisation (excluding those exclusively in Lucidity Induction).
All users are created and managed within Lucidity HR or Access, both of which come as automatic additions to Competency. User information is shared between the full suite of products, such as Risk.
Within HR, user details are entered, tracked, updated and archived as required. Some of this information is then used within Lucidity Competency for the purpose of tracking and reporting on training records and needs.
