You can add skills and expertise to your profile. These are particularly useful if you are a mentor, because they enable mentees to make more informed choices when searching for a mentor. See Searching for a Mentor (Mentees Only) for more information.

 

Skills and expertise are displayed at the bottom of your Profile page:
