UbiSkills is Ubiquity University’s name for a “soft skills” learning and recognition system, pitched as a practical toolkit for developing future-proof human capabilities like leadership, communication, and collaboration - ubiquityuniversity.org 
# What it is
UbiSkills is presented as a structured set of competencies that can be learned, practiced, and evidenced, with the claim that these are the skills organisations most often say they need in a complex and fast-changing world - ubiquityuniversity.org
# The “Foundation in Soft Skills and UN SDGs” programme
UbiSkills is strongly associated with a turnkey curriculum called the Foundation in Soft Skills & UN SDGs, which is designed for schools and organisations and combines skill development with applied projects mapped to the UN Sustainable Development Goals - ubiquityuniversity.org
The programme is described as including ready-made materials (including video learning), learner and facilitator workbooks, and training for teachers or facilitators so it can be delivered locally rather than depending on a single central classroom model - ubiquityuniversity.org
# The Chartres Framework and “seven skill categories”
Ubiquity University describes the learning system as being based on its “Chartres Framework”, framed as a re-imagining of the seven traditional liberal arts for 21st-century capability building - ubiquityuniversity.org
In their own materials, UbiSkills is often summarised as “seven essential skill categories” that are then practiced through real-world challenges linked to the SDGs - ubiquityuniversity.org
# UbiSkills and credentialing
UbiSkills sits alongside a wider credentialing story that includes UbiCerts (credentials for competencies gained through learning and life experience) and can include recognition of prior work experience or in-house training that is assessed for credentialing - ubiquityuniversity.org
In Ubiquity’s product framing, UbiSkills is positioned as one “stream” of their overall portfolio, alongside a skills passport idea (UbiPass) and a community platform (UbiVerse) - ubiquityuniversity.org
# What it’s trying to solve
UbiSkills is a response to a familiar gap: formal education often measures knowledge, while workplaces and civic life depend heavily on interpersonal, self-management, and collaboration skills that are harder to teach, practice, and recognise at scale - ubiquityuniversity.org
It also tries to solve a second gap: translating “soft skills” from vague interview talk into a learning system that can be delivered, practiced in teams, and evidenced through projects - ubiquityuniversity.org
# How it tends to show up in real use
Ubiquity frames UbiSkills as something that can be used in classrooms and corporate settings, with an emphasis on group exercises and application rather than purely individual study - ubiquityuniversity.org
Their course catalogue copy also positions the Foundation programme as a fast way to strengthen 21st-century skills while building literacy around global challenges and systems thinking - ubiquityuniversity.org
# Confusions and naming collisions
UbiSkills is easy to confuse with similarly named offerings like “UniSkills” (a common name for university study-skills services) or unrelated “Ubiskills” projects online, so checking the domain and context matters - ubiquityuniversity.org
# Limits and critique
Like most soft-skills frameworks, the hard part is not listing skills but proving improvement, avoiding performative badge-collecting, and ensuring assessment is meaningful across cultures and contexts - ubiquityuniversity.org
If UbiSkills works, it will be because it reliably changes behaviour in teams over time, not because it can describe skills in attractive language or map them to global goals - ubiquityuniversity.org
