SkillProof in brief
SkillProof is appraisal management software for recording review dates, status, outcomes and owned development actions against each staff member.
What it tracks
- Preparation, feedback, meeting, confirmation and sign-off status
- Objectives, linked records and recorded outcomes
- Development actions, follow-up check-ins and moderation where used
Scope and boundaries
- It does not conduct appraisals or score performance automatically
- It does not replace manager or professional judgement
- It is not a full HRIS or talent-calibration suite
Why organisations replace spreadsheets
Review dates, status and follow-up actions stay connected to the staff record instead of being split across trackers, documents and manager inboxes.
Training and LMS context
SkillProof includes a governed LMS for creating, assigning, completing and reviewing internal learning alongside workforce compliance records. It also records review and development follow-up around training, CPD and competence records.

What this workflow covers
Appraisal software should support a continuing management process rather than store a yearly form. SkillProof provides structured reviews from Growth, including preparation and colleague feedback, the meeting record, confirmation, sign-off, objectives and follow-up where configured. Custom review templates are available on Professional and Enterprise. SkillProof does not score performance automatically or replace a fair management conversation.
What happens after the appraisal meeting?
Can managers see which reviews are due?
Dates and preparation tasks are missed when each manager keeps a separate diary or document.
Who owns each agreed action?
Objectives and development commitments lose momentum when owner, due date and status remain inside meeting notes.
Can follow-up connect to development evidence?
CPD, training and competence actions are often tracked separately from the conversation that created them.
From preparation to accountable follow-up

Use the selected template for preparation, colleague feedback and the steps your workspace requires.
Record the meeting and decisions
