How Broadcast Production works in SkillScorer
Score
Each team member in a newsroom is scored on the Broadcast Production skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank team members, compare two side by side, or compare your newsrooms against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Broadcast Production skills need attention. Reports also follow each senior editor's newsroom.

Every team member is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one newsroom and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Broadcast Production?
Broadcast Production starts with these levels (called “Seniority Level” in the app): Cadet, Journalist, Senior Journalist, Editor, Senior Editor and Head of Content. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Broadcast Production skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In media & communications the app talks about team members, newsrooms and senior editors, and you can change any of those words too.
