Question 1

What statement describes the Skills Cloud feature?



Answer : D

Workday Skills Cloud is a delivered feature included automatically with Workday tenants.

It uses machine learning to normalize skills across the system.

Incorrect options:

A . Only accesses customer-tenanted skills false, it includes Workday's universal skills ontology.

B . Prevents enterprises from adding skills false, enterprises can add custom skills.

C . Requires Innovation Services subscription false, Skills Cloud is included automatically, not a paid add-on.


Workday Skills Cloud overview: ''Skills Cloud is automatically enabled and does not require additional licensing.''

Question 2

Your annual performance review includes goals, feedback, and responsibilities. Your business process includes these steps:

Set Review Content

Get Additional Reviewers

Assess Potential

Complete Manager Evaluation

What step will the workflow not use?



Answer : B

In Workday's annual performance review process, typical default steps are:

Set Review Content defines template contents (goals, feedback, responsibilities).

Get Additional Reviewers allows adding reviewers.

Complete Manager Evaluation manager provides evaluation.

Assess Potential is not part of the performance review process; it belongs to Talent Review / Succession Planning processes.

Therefore, the workflow will not use Assess Potential in a performance review.


Workday Performance Review vs. Talent Review process distinction in Pro materials.

Workday configuration: ''Assess Potential'' is a Talent module step, not part of standard performance review flows.

Question 3

When a position has a succession plan, what talent attribute identifies the timeframe that you expect a specific worker to move into that position?



Answer : C

In succession planning, the Readiness talent attribute represents the timeframe in which a worker is expected to be ready to move into a position (e.g., ''Ready Now,'' ''1--2 Years,'' ''3--5 Years'').

Incorrect options:

A . Achievable Level indicates the highest role/level a worker may reach, not timeframe.

B . Retention risk of employee leaving, not succession readiness.

D . Potential overall growth capacity, not time-based readiness.


Workday Succession Planning documentation: ''Readiness specifies the timeframe for potential successors.''

Question 4

You want to define level-based behavioral indicators for proficiency ratings on a competency.

What criteria can you use?



Answer : B

Behavioral indicators can be tied to proficiency rating levels on a competency to describe expected behaviors at each level.

These indicators are assigned by Job Profile.

Other options (Supervisory Organization, Management Level, Talent Pool) are not used to define behavioral indicators.

Linking by Job Profile allows organizations to customize behaviors expected for different roles.

Workday Pro Talent & Performance training material: ''Behavioral indicators are assigned at the job profile level to define expected behaviors for each proficiency rating.''

Question 5

The HR department wants to gather talent information from their employees and managers.

What business process can they use?



Answer : A

The Launch Talent Review business process is used by HR and Talent Partners to gather, review, and calibrate employee information from both employees and managers.

It provides a structured way to collect talent-related data (performance, potential, risk of loss, impact of loss, etc.) for workforce planning and succession.

Incorrect options:

Complete Manager Evaluation part of performance reviews, not general talent data gathering.

Launch Calibration aligns ratings but does not broadly gather talent information.

Start Performance Review focused on annual/performance evaluations, not holistic talent review.


Workday Talent Review documentation: ''Launch Talent Review is the business process to gather talent information from employees and managers.''

Question 6

What functionality prevents managers from having visibility to peer-to-peer feedback?



Answer : A

Private Feedback ensures that only the feedback recipient can see the comments.

This means managers have no visibility to peer-to-peer private feedback.

Other options:

Confidential Feedback visible to both the worker and their manager.

Feedback Badges recognition icons, not a visibility control.

Anonymity hides the feedback giver's name but does not control manager visibility.


Workday Talent & Performance documentation: Private vs. Confidential feedback visibility.

Question 7

What task do you configure to use suggested skills?



Answer : C

Suggested skills functionality is enabled and configured using the Maintain Skills and Experience Setup task.

This controls whether Workday will suggest skills to workers based on their profiles and activity.

Incorrect options:

Edit Tenant Setup -- System and Edit Tenant Setup -- HCM global settings, not skill suggestions.

Configure Optional Fields defines visibility of fields but not skill suggestion functionality.


Workday Talent & Performance documentation: ''Suggested skills are configured in Maintain Skills and Experience Setup.''

Pro Talent certification material confirms this task.
