Requesting a skill upgrade

SkillsUpdated September 24, 2026

If you already hold a skill and believe you have grown past your current level, you do not need to wait for a reviewer to notice — you can request the upgrade yourself from My Skills.

Before you start

You need to already hold the skill at a lower level than the one you are requesting.

  2. Find the skill you want to upgrade and click Request upgrade.
  3. Choose the level you are requesting and add any context that supports it.
  4. Submit.

Notes

Submitting a request does not change your held level right away — it waits for an admin or reviewer to approve it in the Talent Pool's Upgrade requests tab. You can track the status of every request you have made from your own My Skills page.
