How Fuel50 is Supporting UC Irvine’s Skills Transformation

We are honored to be recognized for our contribution to UC Irvine’s skills-based transformation. Before the implementation of Fuel50, employees at UCI were looking to take the next step in their career, however, internal development opportunities were few and far between.

Employees had the desire to grow, but the ability to match them to relevant opportunities within the organization was a real challenge that needed to be solved. Fuel50 helped UC Irvine transform their traditional career framework into a skills-based architecture by intelligently mapping skills to roles.

This enabled UC Irvine to gain deeper insight into employee skills and capabilities to identify current and future skills gaps, match employees to relevant opportunities, and create personalized reskilling and upskilling plans.

This transformation has helped UC Irvine identify, understand, and action skills like never before, making it the foundation of their reformed skills-based talent strategy. Employees can now easily explore internal opportunities, understand what skills they need, and take actionable steps in their development.

Leaders have deeper insight into the values, motivations, and goals of their employees, enabling them to support meaningful career growth. With a 50% reduction in attrition, UC Irvine is on the road to driving better retention and engagement – a significant triumph in their ongoing journey with Fuel50.
