80% less work. 100% smarter.

How CYPHER AI 360 helps automate skills creation and mapping at every step

Discover the smarter way to easily and rapidly create and map skills to your course content. Remove the manual and time-consuming labor invested in course development. Unlike current tedious methods, CYPHER simplifies the process of developing courses and assessments, significantly reducing the time and effort required by L&D teams.

Step 1: Identify course objectives

Establish the main goals you want learners to achieve, including both broad objectives (like understanding key concepts) and specific objectives (such as mastering particular skills).

  • Current approach
    You do 100% of the work.
  • CYPHER AI-enabled skills development
    CYPHER does 80%. Create course objectives with CYPHER AI 360.
    You do 20%. Review and refine.

Step 2: Conduct a needs analysis

Determine the needs and expectations of the learners or industry the course targets. This helps identify the gap between current and desired skills.

  • Current approach
    You do 100% of the work.
  • CYPHER AI-enabled skills development
    CYPHER does 90%. The platform includes skill sets for thousands of job roles and offers the ability to automatically select and map these standardized skills to assessments allowing learners to know their initial skill level. If a required job role is missing, CYPHER can upload it and automatically handle keyword tagging.
