What is SkillSphere Assessment?

SkillSphere is Simplifying Skills' AI-powered career and personality assessment for K12 students. It evaluates students across five scientific frameworks Differential Aptitude Test (DAT), Bar-On Emotional Intelligence (Bar-On EQ-i), CORE adversity quotient, RIASEC career interest fit, and OCEAN Big Five personality and produces a 40-page personalised report mapping the student to recommended streams, careers, and learning paths.

What is NEP 2020 and how does Simplifying Skills support its implementation?

The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 is India's framework for transforming school and higher education through experiential learning, multilingualism, holistic assessments, and vocational integration. Simplifying Skills supports end-to-end NEP implementation through theme-based curriculum for Grades 1–5, Holistic Progress Cards aligned to PARAKH, the SkillSphere assessment for guidance and counselling, AI-powered learning management, and faculty development programs.

What is a Holistic Progress Card (HPC)?

A Holistic Progress Card (HPC) is an NEP 2020 and PARAKH-aligned student report that captures cognitive, social, and emotional growth using formative, observation-based, and rubric-based evaluations, alongside self, peer, teacher, and parent feedback. Simplifying Skills automates HPC generation for schools at scale.

Who can take the SkillSphere Assessment?

SkillSphere is designed for K12 students, with the strongest impact for Class 8 onwards when stream and career decisions begin. Parents can sign up directly, or students can take the assessment through partner schools. The assessment takes approximately 60–90 minutes and produces a personalised 40-page report.

How does the Placement Engine help university students?

The Placement Engine is an AI-powered platform that helps university students prepare for and secure placements. It matches students to relevant roles, provides aptitude and coding practice through the Assessment Engine, supports company-readiness through structured preparation tracks, and offers visibility into off-campus opportunities including hackathons such as SIH, TCS CodeVita, and FlipKart Grid.

Is Simplifying Skills available globally or only in India?

Simplifying Skills is India-first by design built around NEP 2020, NCF 2023, and Indian curriculum frameworks but the assessment science (DAT, OCEAN, RIASEC, Bar-On, CORE) and the platform are globally applicable. We are progressively expanding to global learners and international schools following Indian curricula.
