About DCP

Data-driven Capability Pathways is a suite of tools to assist in the evaluation of skills and development requirements. They can be used individually, but their real value is seen when they are used in conjunction to evaluate across an entire organisation and identify development pathways at all levels.

Data-driven Agility Level (DAL)

The Data-driven Agility Level (DAL) examines the infrastructure, processes and procedures of an organisation to determine its ability to make the most of current and emerging technology. Often, the tool applied as part of the scoping phase of an engagement, since it helps to inform plans for applicaiton of the other tools

Confidence Cloud (CC)

Using multiple choice questions designed to encourage honest nswers about understanding, the confidence cloud survey is a light-touch but very telling tool. The goal of the confidence cloud is to gather the greatest quantity of data possible to establish how confident participants are in specific technology areas. It is designed to support and add context to the data collected using the DCL tool.

Data-driven Capability Level (DCL)

Data for DCL is gathered through in-depth interviews using a unique and carefully constructed set of questions. The interviews are conducted by trained assessors and are designed to facilitate a greater understanding of the capabilities and attitudes toward key technologies.

Frontier Tech (FT)

Using data captured through the Data-Driven Skills Diagnostic Process, individualised packages of development materials are constructed. These packages are curated by our data-driven algorithm, ensuring participants across the workforce are presented with the details and case-studies most appropriate for them. The incorporated Knowledge Checks provide data on the progress of each participant. In combination with the initial DCP diagnostics, this enables robust analysis of potential and helps make informed strategic decisions about technology and capability. The depth of information provided by Frontier Tech and the Data-driven Skills Diagnostic Process makes it easier to identify training needs and effectively measure the impact of professional development.
