Swot Analysis

Swot (Strengths, Weakness, Opportunities and treats) Analysis is a strategic planning framework or technique to help an organization or a person to evaluate its competitive position (Gurel, 2017). Swot analysis also helps in identifying current and future potential and to assess internal and external factors.

Swot analysis is very important for skills assessment as it provides the knowledge of skills one presently has and the skills that one wish to develop in future.

 To have a clear picture of skills I have and the skills I wish to have in future I need to conduct a swot analysis of my skills. After I evaluate my swot analysis for my skills, I can figure out what are my strengths and weakness. And by evaluating my opportunities and treats I can find out upcoming obstacles and to know the future benefits after completing my project. The below table shows the SWOT analysis of my skills at the start of the module.
