# Set up skills

A skill represents a specific skill, experience, education, or training that a person can have. You can use skills to make assigning people to roles easier and more structured.

You can use skills as defined in the **Human resources** module or create skills in RapidValue.

### Steps

1. Click **Business process modeling**.
2. Click **Skills**.
3. Click **Add**.
4. Sub-task: Add skills from human resources.
  1. You can use skills as defined in the **Human resources** module. These skills do not have a skill type definition which is required in RapidValue. Therefore, define the skill type that applies to the skills.
