Katch Skills Onboarding Hub includes tips, demos, and tools to help your students, cohorts, and staff build the habit of capturing skills.
Welcome to the Katch Skills Onboarding Hub — your go-to resource for helping learners and teams get started and stay engaged from day one.
Katch Skills works best when capturing learning becomes a habit. Whether you are supporting students, fellows, workforce participants, cohorts, or staff at your business, successful onboarding starts with making the experience simple, consistent, and connected to real outcomes.
Katch helps people capture learning, translate experiences into skills, and build portable profiles they can carry throughout their careers. For organizations, that means stronger participation, better visibility into growth, and clearer outcomes reporting.
Start with the “Why”
The most successful onboarding efforts begin by helping users understand why Katch matters to them.
Here are a few simple ways to frame it:
✔ Own Your Story
Katch helps users capture skills gained through coursework, events, trainings, internships, leadership programs, and everyday experiences.
✔ Build a Portable Skills Profile
Profiles belong to the learner or employee and stay with them beyond graduation, training completion, or job transitions.
✔ Turn Participation Into Proof of Growth
Learning should not disappear after a class, workshop, webinar or meeting ends.
Tips for Higher Engagement
Organizations that see the strongest adoption typically follow a few simple practices.
1. Introduce Katch Skills Early
Do not wait until the end of a program or training cycle.
Introduce Katch during orientation, onboarding, kickoff meetings, or the first cohort session so users begin building the habit immediately.
2. Use QR Codes and Learning Logs
Make skills tracking easy and part of the experience.
Encourage participants to scan event QR codes or complete learning logs after workshops, trainings, team meetings, guest speakers, leadership activities, or program milestones.
You can also connect learning logs directly to your cohorts once they are signed up.
Every scan becomes an opportunity to document growth.
3. Make Katch Skills Part of the Workflow
The strongest programs and organizations integrate Katch Skills into the rhythm of learning and development.
Promote Katch Skills public profiles as a hiring and talent discovery tool within your employer networks. Public profiles help employers see more than credentials alone by making skills, experiences, and growth visible.
Organizations can also encourage students, cohort participants, and staff to include their Katch Skills public profile link in resumes, applications, and professional materials, helping them tell a fuller story about their capabilities and learning journey.
4. Celebrate Participation
Recognition drives engagement.
Highlight strong profiles, encourage participation, and remind learners and staff that they are building something valuable they can use in resumes, performance conversations, career advancement, and professional storytelling.
