Skills are used to make sure you have the correct employee working on a specific shift. If you assign a skill to an employee and associate that skill with a shift type, you can make sure only employees with the specific skill are able to work on shifts from that shift type.
You can find skills in the Account settings menu under skills. You need to start with the creation of a skill category. You can use an abbreviation, for example EDU - short for education, EXP - short for experience, or anything you want.
Start by navigating to Account settings > Skills > Skill categories and click Add to create a category. Read more about skill categories here.
