About this free form template

Identify HR Skills Gaps and Build a Stronger Team

Understanding where your HR team's skills stand—and where they need to grow—is critical to staying compliant, efficient, and competitive. This HR Skills Gap Analysis Form is designed to help HR leaders, managers, and people operations teams assess competency levels across the key pillars of modern HR: HRIS platform expertise, recruitment tools, employee relations, compliance knowledge, and benefits administration.

Whether you're onboarding new HR staff, planning professional development budgets, or preparing for a system migration, this template gives you a clear, structured way to capture self-reported proficiency, training preferences, and development priorities across your team.

Why Paperform for skills gap analysis?

Paperform makes it easy to design professional, on-brand skills assessments that employees actually want to complete. With conditional logic, you can tailor follow-up questions based on role or experience level, and use calculations to auto-score responses or flag priority training areas. Once submitted, responses flow directly into your HRIS, LMS, or project management tool via Stepper or native integrations—so you can turn insights into action without manual data entry.

Use AI Insights to quickly summarise trends across departments, highlight common skill deficits, and generate training roadmaps that align with your team's real needs. And because this is Paperform, your skills gap analysis can be embedded on your intranet, shared via Slack, or sent as a custom-branded link that feels like part of your internal people experience.

Perfect for HR departments, people ops teams, talent development managers, and training coordinators looking to build a more capable, confident, and compliant HR function.

Built for growing businesses, trusted by bigger ones.
Trusted by 500K+ business owners and creators, and hundreds of millions of respondents.
